Too many mistakes! 23 Feb 2009
Format:Paperback
I read the 5 star review before I bought this book and I was initially very pleased with the accessible way the author handled the topics. Then I read a description of the isotopes of hydrogen which is just plain wrong. I have complained to the publishers and looked online for reviews that point out these errors and guess where I found them - Amazon.com! Unfortunately the good reviews don't tell the whole story. This book is not reliable and I cannot recommend it.

. . . some things just work better on paper. I first saw this as a paper book, and loved the idea, the headings, the all-on-one-page presentation, the dip-in-at-random possibilities. On a Kindle a lot of this is lost. The narrow screen pushes the heading information into a jumble, and spreads one page over three (this is less of a problem on the 3 smallest text sizes). There is no table of contents, and to find the index one has to go to the end and page back. Is there a random function on Kindle? I'd rather have it on Kindle than not at all, but the paper version is more fun.
The publishing errors mentioned in one review have been corrected, both in the Kindle edition and the latest print edition. I am not expert enough to judge whether the factual errors have also been corrected, but for the same reason am not so concerned, as I am only taking the general gist.

Here you get a short and precise definition on all the laws and theories in modern science.

If you're not driven in science its okay, here the theories are broken down to kinder garden level.
