Highly entertaininga]. In addition to being able to tell a good story, Van Dulken . . . easily assembles complex ideas from chemistry and engineering and make them palatable for the lay person. Van Dulken has assembled a panoramic snapshot of the century. By giving us a picture of our past, Van Dulken also presents our future. - Boston Globe
