Yzabel Ginsberg's Reviews > How to Speak Science: Gravity, Relativity, and Other Ideas That Were Crazy Until Proven Brilliant

Definitely interesting, although the abysmal attempts at humour were terribly distracting, because they weren't funny at all. My Kindle counted 15 occurrences of the "People magazine" joke (which I'm calling joke for want of another word), but they felt like 50. And I kept waiting for a punchline that just never came, which made me wonder: 1) where did that 'joke' even come from, what prompted it? And 2) considering this book was originally published in French, was that even included in it, since it makes even less sense whatsoever in French?

To be honest, it's my interest for hard science that kept me reading, certainly not the tone.
