The Equations: Icons of Knowledge di Sander Bais

One set of opinions on what is really important in math and physical science. I could not resist this title.

In Praise of Science: Curiosity, Understanding, and… di Sander Bais

A good attempt to combat science illiteracy, partly by presenting a lot of pretty "Ouroboros" diagrams. "The general public typically does not distinguish between science and technology, but still the overall emotional reaction against science is something to be worried about." (p 170) I shouldn't focus on the small number of mistakes he makes, but I wouldn't have thought any physicist would spell "algorithm" as "algorhythm" (!) or say that Sol's end stage will be a supernova.
