Book Reviews of The Science of Superheroes
Book Review: Science is simple, maths is not.
Summary: 5 Stars
I won't write a detailed review because it has already been done quite eloquently. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I was never fond of science classes! It is funny and engaging all the way through, and the science is not really that hard to understand (it is the equations that baffled me when the authors were figuring out the possibility of an alien invasion). Thumbs way up for the effort of bringing science to the public and this book really should be more popular. I would recommend this book to any teenager who wishes to pass a science exam, and to any adult who wants to help them do so.
