"Goodenough presents her scientific knowledge as stories, with plot twists and turns that trigger a 'what's next?' curiosity....For a scientist like myself, [her] elegant narratives provide a refreshing way to encounter familiar material. I was especially impressed with her ability to cut right to the quick, so that within a few short pages the reader is whisked from the big bang to the emergence of our planet and the birth of life on earth....Would that all scientific texts were so carefully conceived and beautifully written."Goodenough, Ursula is the author of 'Sacred Depths of Nature' with ISBN 9780195126136 and ISBN 0195126130.
