Short History of Nearly Everything

Jaimie and I are reading Bill Bryson’s
A Short History of Nearly Everything. I would say he does a fine job a science popularizer. It’s fascinating to read the stories of the people who advance our knowledge of the world. Forget celebrity gossip, science gossip has characters who are at least as weird and entertaining. I hope I remember to give this book to my kids when they’re old enough to read it.
