Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-17 00:00:00 Steven Morris its kinda difficult to like a book when you disagree with the author on some rather large issue ie the theory of evolution vs creation (for me). I was expecting to see the issue being unravel by the author in a rather unbias fashion, but i didnt think that was the case with this one. however, it may probably be worth reading; it is certainly amusing and interesting to know real the person behind the big names in science such as Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, Galileo Galilei, etc. They are certainly human being with their own idiosyncracies, and their own personal problems. It was more amusing to note that sometimes, the validity of a scientific theory depends on the acceptability of the theory by the public which most of the times depended on their ideology, their own interests, as well as the political and sociological situation.
