3.0 out of 5 stars
Later edition available,
By R Bell (Dun Eideann/Edinburgh Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Einstein and the Total Eclipse (Postmodern Encounters) (Paperback)
Be careful when ordering this book, there is another in the Postmodern Encounters series which is basically the same book in a slightly more up-to-date format- Einstein and the Birth of Big Science. Same book, different title, with a couple more sentences...
