WHAT makes today’s great scientists tick? Eduardo Punset and Lynn Margulis offer insights into the lives, minds and work of leading scientists in this collection of conversations taken from Punset’s Spanish television program Networks. We hear from biologist Richard Dawkins on how the inside of our brains could sound like a battlefield, physicist Lisa Randall on her excitement about the hunt for extra dimensions, and how neurologist Oliver Sacks has a periodic table bedspread. This lively book is perfect for enquiring minds to dip into.
