| Review: |
This book, written in biblical format, provides a comprehensive compendium of scientific discoveries. The 'Old Testament' describes the history of the Earth up to 8000BC. It begins; 'In the "beginning", there was no beginning. Before the Planck time, there was no time and there was no space. The universe was in a quantum state with wild fluctuations.' It goes on to cover the formation of the Universe, and changes in the Earth up to the Pleistocene. The 'New Testament' concentrates more on the laws of physics and nature. It covers the fundamental elements: from the quark to the atom, from the double helix DNA molecule to the cell, from the Earth to the Universe. The chapters are designed to stand alone and be read in any order. |
