Fragments of Science for Unscientific People

Publisher Marketing: This book contains a series of dedicated introductory essays, lectures, and reviews covering a wide range of topics. Written with the desire to extend sympathy for science beyond the limits of the scientific public, these pieces have been written with the layperson in mind and, although most of the essays are of a purely scientific nature, the author has endeavoured to exclude every word which may have caused needless irritation. Conveyed in an engaging and accessible manner, this fascinating text is a must-have for any aspiring student of science. John Tyndall was an influential 19th century physicist. Originally published in 1871, this text is republished now with an introductory biography of the author. Contributor Bio:  Tyndall, John John Tyndall resides in London, Ontario. His publications include Thirteen Poems: From the Bruce Peninsula (1974), Howlcat Fugues. This book was also chosen by the Library Journal as one of the ten best small-press poetry books of 1976. His first book published by Black Moss was titled Free Rein (2001). His poems have also appeared on thespoken-word CD entitled Souwesto Words: 25 Poets In Southwestern Ontario, Canada (1999) and in the anthologies That Sign of Perfection, Losers First, I Want to Be the Poet of Your Kneecaps, Henry's Creature, and Following the Plough.. Tyndall's poetry has been praised in the University of Toronto Quarterly for its "strange iridescent language," and by the Library Journal for its "surrealistic melding of poetry and art."
