Book Favorite

"I like all of Weisskopf’s books, but this autobiography above all—in particular the chapter called ‘Mozart and Quantum Mechanics,’ in which he compares the beauties and joys of music with those of mathematics and science."

Ruth Frampton (577 KP) rated Treknology: The Science of Star Trek from Tricorders to Warp Drive in Books

Apr 10, 2018

Sci-fi writings have been the dreams and places of inspiration for scientists for years past and this book shows that Star Trek is no different. A look at the items from the show that have or are becoming science fact, this book is well presented and easy to navigate, it goes into depth on some of the more familiar elements from Gene Roddenberry's world. With many, many images to break up the science, this could almost be a coffee table book, definitely recommended.

I used to love this film as I like the fact the science was quite good. I like Kate Winslet's character and her difficulties in attempting to explain the severity of the situation to politicians. I like the ending where it shows how the virus jumped to humans. I found that I wanted the punch Jude Law throughout the film but am glad that he at least wasn't completely able to get away with it.
