Read it! This is one of the best books I have ever read on how science
works!  It's short, quick, and I've learned SO MUCH from it, that I need a
copy for my own library. I now know why Mars can't have liquid water. It
probably was explained to me before, but Donald Goldsmith made it so
understandable that I could present it to an 8th grader!
