Reviews

In Nabokovian spirit, The Measured Word establishes that while the scientist's and the poet's uses of language sometimes work at cross-purposes, their temperaments and creative processes correspond . . . These intelligent essays make for inspiring and enriching reading on either side of the chasm.-- ISLE

What we have in The Measured Word is a treasury of chasm bridgers who (not without some interesting doubts and ironies) have reattached the separate worlds of art and science, using the most sturdy and wonderful of literary engineering skills. What a pleasure to stand in the middle of that bridge and breathe in deeply from both sides of the view! --Albert Goldbarth
