5.0 out of 5 stars Science doesnt know it all yet....., 8 Nov 2008

By	Dr. Malcolm P. Langridge - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: 13 Things That Don't Make Sense: The Most Baffling Scientific Mysteries of Our Time (Hardcover)

We live in a time where scientists might be especially defensive. A significant proportion of teachers think creationism should be taught in schools and scientifically illiterate Daily Mail journalist are prepared to pronounce on the supposed unlikeliness of global warming . So a book which emphasises what is anomalous or inexplicable in our current level of scientific understanding needs to be rather carefully balanced and pragmatic to a thought provoking read. Michael Brooks achieves this even when dealing with topics such as Homeopathy with which chemists like myself are usually particularly irritated .The Chapters on Cold Fusion ,the evidence that NASA found for life on Mars and possible extraterestrial signals I found particularly interesting. A very worthwhile read.
