Review # 1 was written on 2011-08-10 00:00:00 Dean Smith It is what it is, a collection of nifty facts about science - mostly chemistry. There's some neat stuff in here, the author is an OK writer and topics cover a wide area. On the other hand, he is only an OK writer; his titles are often lame, he barely hides his anti-environmentalism biases, stories often run into tangents which are only occasionally interesting, and the editor must have been asleep to allow so many mistakes. Neat stuff.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-03-31 00:00:00 Jacob Flores Here is a book that is filled with interesting science trivia. As the author points out, it’ll give you something to talk about at the next party you feel safe to attend. The fun part is how the author presents each tidbit as a trivia question. How are two items related or why does a product have a certain warning, for example. There isn’t a story here, just 199 interesting vignettes of science. Another audience for the book would be science curious kids. There is a lot here for them to see the wonder of science in both history and everyday life.
