I found myself yesterday wondering around Waterstones and chanced upon the much-hyped new book by TV scientist Brian Cox. His book, on quantum physics, was written for the lay person, he’s said. Well, either I’m a dunce or Prof. Cox has no idea of your average person. What does he expect people like me to make of pages of equations?. His many female admirers will be in a funk.
I closed the book and opted for another without dense mathematics.
