Angier is a wonderful writer, and a pulitzer-prize-winning journalist. Her use of language and the ability to unexpectedly come up with a turn of phrase or a attention-getting example keeps her audience on her every word. In addition to the quality of the book itself, the reader in this audio CD version, Nike Doukas, has a voice that is very easy to listen to, and extremely appropriate to the content.
This is an outstanding book on general scientific concepts for those whose paths have generally trodden non-science pathways! Also a great book for a high schooler who wants a look at science in terms of everyday life.
