“…a narrow-focus book aimed at rock hounds, fossil collectors and students of paleobotany… the book comprises a highly competent presentation of a specialized subject area. Neophytes should take note that some of the language is quite technical…”

"Some of Fischman’s essays offer fascinating constructs. Others seem to be missing the legs of an argument... It should prove a largely worthwhile read for wilderness and nature enthusiasts."

"This is a captivating, relentlessly paced novel with well-developed characters, a fascinating backstory, richly described world-building, and a multitude of visionary imagery . But perhaps the most powerful aspect is the story’s dark atmospherics and compelling underlying themes, not the least of which is the sheer unpredictability of existence."

"Presented in Q&A format, the book asks questions: Where is God? What is the Soul? Through a relatively light use of math, the author’s brief, philosophical answers draw from the wells of cosmology, physics, quantum mechanics and more. He tackles big topics in 33 pages, and explanations only scratch the surface of his subjects’ complexity."

"Given that this book confounds more often than it entertains, it’s unlikely that many readers will persevere to the end. "

"With its memories of the free-wheeling lifestyle that was once possible, Travels with King Kong will attract those who trekked in that era (and those who wished they had), and could perhaps inspire a few hardy souls to wander."

"Jiping Liu’s book, Liquid Explosives, presents a well-sourced summary of research developments in the field...Heavily academic, this book will serve as a helpful volume for industry experts and a handy and useful primer for engineering and science professionals looking to brush up on the basics before diving further into this specialized field."

"Human beings are Sussman's eponymous cosmic cancer: wasteful, violent, destructive, and so focused on short-term gratification that they refuse to acknowledge how close to the environmental and population abyss Earth is...the absence of concrete solutions makes this more of a jeremiad than a call to action."

"A fusion of New Age ideology and allegorical fantasy that follows a group of spiritual seekers on their collective journey towards enlightenment, this third installment in Michael Markevich’s Carpadia sequence is unarguably the most comprehensible volume of the trilogy."

"An engineering physicist gives a rundown of the “problems” he sees in the very foundation of cosmology, the Big Bang theory, and suggests an alternate explanation for the origin of the universe..his book provides discussion points for further exploration into one of humanity’s most existential questions: Where do we come from?"

"This complex book looks at what leads to income imbalances through our geographic, educational, career and marital choices and suggests how knowing that information can help lead to success...A less dense text would be more likely to attract a larger audience. Still, the book offers intriguing information and thought-provoking ideas."

"...This is important territory, and Klintworth provides an illuminating view of science that isn’t often examined. The book’s main drawback is its need for copyediting. With such revision, however, Klintworth’s monograph would make a wonderful handbook for those interested in the ethics of science."

"All thinking men are atheists,” Ernest Hemingway once wrote. That line could serve as an epigraph for Rem Stokes’ thoughtful, if uneven, From God to DNA. Stokes’ avuncular, conversational style makes it easy sometimes to overlook some of the book’s faults, including awkward sentences and some factual mistakes."

"It’s not as easy to forgive Howard for changing his focus midway through the book. The engrossing memoir slams to a halt after Howard has spent six weeks on the job, and the diary-style entries are replaced by several academic chapters about the history of the region… Although the personal story has great promise, the book ultimately disappoints."

"The book’s subtitle might be “Theory of Reality,” but while this is certainly the work of someone who thinks deeply and questions everything, most will find the material to be a radically altered version of reality as they know it. Although the material is well organized, it offers only a slim list of references at the end of each chapter."

“…for the serious researcher. Although it’s less than 100 pages, Hamilton includes incredibly detailed data on the discovery, naming, orbits, and physical characteristics of dwarf planets and asteroids.”
