Title: Spanning all of science
Review: Nigel Calder is a distinguished polymath and author, whose interests for years have spanned all of modern science. Here, he demonstrates his intellect and eloquence in 756 pages of compelling prose.You can't fail to be impressed by how well he covers both the biological and the physical sciences. It is really tough to do both well. Perhaps Calder is a good successor to the late Isaac Asimov.Very suitable (and recommended) for a high school or undergraduate reading. I would claim that this book is best directed at the high school level. For it is there that students may decide to pursue further studies in science, or not. And even for those who do not, the book gives an excellent and authoritative broad spectrum education in science, that they can carry with them in good stead.
