From about the turn of the millenium, I decided to educate myself with some of the more conscientious tracts on popular physics, mainly. Consequently, some of these reviews were over-the-top content-wise. A long manifest of works considered is included in the blurb.
Being also into democracy, which is something of the ethical sister to scientific progress, I twinned these complementary subjects in this one book.
In the middle, I grafted my strong feelings against nuclear fission, in a series of essays, written prophetically before the Fukushima disasters. No matter how it was played down, as Feynman said: "Nature cannot be fooled." Which is to say the consequences cannot be wished-away by looking the other way.
