The book brings out several strands of value for the reader. ... The book ... gives valuable insight for non-scientists on the things that count in the life of a scientist. ... The reviewer has no hesitation in commending it to anyone with an interest in science, particularly low temperature science, and science in Oxford. (John Vandore, Cold Facts, Vol. 37 (4), 2021)
