Pure io, che ho studi umanistici alle spalle e che ho giusto le basi della scienza, ho potuto seguire le sue spiegazioni. Certo, ammetto che qualche paragrafo in cui erano presenti troppi numeri é stato saltato senza troppi rimorsi. Ma in genere il libro é assolutamente accessibile a chiunque.

Have you ever have any kind of scientific question but you never ask for the answer because too much ridicolous? Well, in this book, the former NASA's roboticist replies to every weird question. There are every kind of subjects, from the space to nuclear crisis, until those questions that are frankly surreal and worrisome, collected in a special section. He gives ironic replies to all of them. a lot of comics and strong scientific basis.
Even I, with my humanistic studies and my rough ideas of science, followed easily his explanations. Of course, I must admit I skipped some chapter without any regret. But in general the book is easy and enjoyable.
