The author takes a complicated subject and delivers it in a highly readable, understandable way. Very nice book.
"Beautiful writing, surprising history all done with brevity and accuracy. How sailors were able to find their way at sea, and what would happen when they didn't.
How ego blocked recognition of the genius who did it. Here is a wonderful little book for your next 3-4 hour airplane travel. We can anticipate more fine writing by Dava Sobel." amazon review
