A nice start, a not so nice end. I thought it would be a nice book to hand to my family in order to show them what I'm doing. Also the idea of connecting Physics and everything else is quite nice. Anyhow with each page I read it became more and more a monologue of the author complaining about the culture and how bad everything is.

At least it makes me wanna talk about the things - discuss it. Just for observation it's also nice to see the clear thoughts of a physicist. Kind of familiar thoughts ^-^''.

I guess, one can't take this book too serious, at least the more philosophic part of it. It's influenced by the negativity of the 1990ths. Anyhow, the introduction into the particle physic is quite nice and I could imagine that it is understandable for people not coming from the subject he's talking about. ( )
