4.0 out of 5 stars pretty straightforward, 2 Dec 2007
This review is from: The Next Fifty Years: Science in the First Half of the Twenty-First Century: Science in the First Half of the Twenty First Century (Paperback)
This book is definitely interesting and well written, and puts forth generally plausible ideas from many bright, well respected people. A few of the ideas seem a bit hard to swallow, such as Paul Ewald claiming that many of the major human diseases, such as bipolar disorder and Alzheimer's, will be shown to be caused by viruses. But for the most part the book is plausible, interesting, and even somewhat entertaining. Author of Adjust Your Brain: A Practical Theory for Maximizing Mental Health.
