Title: And thus the world turns...
Review: A fascinating look at how a self-taught outsider proved the Earth's rotation around the sun. The book chronicles Foucault's struggles to be accepted by the close minded world of French academia, as well as chronicling French society and politics during the period of Foucault's life. Leon Foucault was truly a prodigious inventor, scientist and engineer and this book provides a great introduction into his unfortunately too short life. The book is a quick and easy read and I believe Aczel hit the sweet spot by not going into the technical details and physics too heaviliy, but rather provided an introductory biography and general level science book.
