I love this book because it's concise and chronicles some of the most significant discoveries in human history. It's also nice because you get to know a little bit of personal information about the scientists. Finally, you can't help but get inspired by these discoveries, most of which we take for granted today. I would especially recommend this book for young people. I think it would give them a good sense of the history of science as well as what humanity is capable of. Paul Gehrman, Author, Kaleidoscope
