    A variation on some of Burke's other works. I own several of his books and never tire of the information and connections he sets afoot. It really depends on how much of a Burke nut you are as to whether you will find it repetitive or fascinating ( again). Burke is one of my Heroes and he can do no wrong.

    2.0 de 5 estrellas Kindle Has Formatting Problems, Avoid!
    Calificado en Estados Unidos el 16 de octubre de 2016
    Compra verificada
    The Kindle version is marred by very frequent errors. It's clear the ebook was created by scanning a printed copy, and then not proofread.

    What's even worse, is that the printed book had a kind of hyperlinking internally. There were footnotes with the page number of related topics, so if you read about, say, James Watt in chapter 2 and wanted to find out more, you could flip to the appropriate pages. If this ebook was properly formatted, they'd be upgraded to real hyperlinks- click the link, and the book goes to the new page correctly. But instead, they were scanned as end notes- that is, at the end of every chapter in the ebook is a series of useless numbers, that were originally the footnotes. The scan turned them into garbage.

    This book is late-career James Burke at best. For the ebook version, it's a waste of the reader's time.

    Calificado en Estados Unidos el 30 de junio de 1999
    Wudi. Simply facinating, I am going to use this book to continue with my plans to take over the world by citing trivial facts until everyone falls asleep, wheupon they will be sent to the afterlife appropriate to their religion. Then the other atheists and I shall rule a clean, safe, better world.

    1.0 de 5 estrellas Misleading Title, Blurb, Introduction, Etc.
    Calificado en Estados Unidos el 30 de julio de 2000
    Compra verificada
    This book was a sorry disappointment. I will preface my further remarks by saying that I am a huge fan of Mr. Burke's television productions, and (ironically) I actually enjoyed the book a great deal, but for mostly all the wrong reasons.
    The fact is that the book does not deal with what is alluded to by the title, the jacket copy, or the author's introduction. Unfortunately, those were the only elements that I scanned when looking over the book in the store (and then buying it online ;-). The marketting blurb on the cover says "From electronic agents to Stonehenge and back...". Well, there was a very small bit about electronic agents and believe it or not, Stonehenge wasn't mentioned once throughout the entire book. Mr. Burke was not well served here by his market driven editors.
    The only reason I still enjoyed the book is that I love both history and technology, and that's the terrain through which this addled account rambles. Regrettably, this book was more like an extended outpouring of jumbled, loosely 'connected' trivia from a hyper-loquacious Alzheimer's patient, than anything truly salient or purposeful. There was absolutely no discernible point to the narrative. The author's attempt to put the work into some kind of prosaic hyperlink format was a bit embarrassing as well. Lastly, the book ended abruptly and arbitrarily, almost as if Mr. Burke's nurse had come in and said "That's all for today. It's time for Mr. Burke's evening feeding. Maybe you can come back tomorrow." I hope not.

    4.0 de 5 estrellas A Fun Meander Through the History of Science
    Calificado en Estados Unidos el 22 de junio de 2016
    Immensely enjoyable, entertaining and enlightening meander through the history of science.
    It contains factual errors (as other reviewers document) and lacks a formal structure but it's a Fun Book and thus succeeds wildly in illustrating (proving might be too strong a word) that knowledge is interconnected. Moreover, he supplies the names of the people who made it happen, many of which will surprise you.
    Plus, as always, Burke excels at explaining the origin and naming of the common things with which we are familiar but don't really know much about.
    Highly recommended.

    A Brilliant book by a brilliant man. It is my current bedside reading after having read it right through twice already. There's just too much to absorb on one read. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. In as good as new condition, I am very pleased indeed. Thank you everyone concerned.

    2.0 de 5 estrellas Interesting, but doesn't go any where
    Calificado en Reino Unido el 13 de septiembre de 2017

    Reviewer John Car has already pointed out the historical inaccuracies of this book. I found that, although well written, it doesn't sustain my interest. As someone else pointed out, it seems to be connections for the sake of connections, which, unlike the first book in the series, don't seem to lead anywhere. In Burke's first book he tells how a series of connected discoveries led to a modern product like the television. That book had an end result, this one doesn't. I also found myself wondering what happened to some people or discoveries after Burke had finished with them. Finally, I started making my own connections. Take Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show - that employed Annie Oakley a sharp shooter who probably used Winchester rifles. From there you could go on to Samuel Colt whose guns were made using interchangeable parts, an idea adopted by Henry Ford, the only capitalist that Hitler admired... you get the idea.
