THE SINGLE HELIX: A Turn around the World of Science STEVE JONES
In 100 succinct essays, Jones takes a whimsical survey of what is known and unknown within the world of science. He reviews each topic not from the perspective of an expert but from that of anyone who has pondered the science behind everyday phenomena. For example, Jones investigates whether drinking alcohol releases creativity, the evidence of glaciers at Earth's equator, the public perception of science, and the role of statistics in e-mail spam. Jones, professor of genetics at the University College London, includes the connection between sleep and memory and Alzheimer's disease, the battle against creationism, and questions about blood replacement. With the mathematics of elections and the threats posed by pigs on the Galapagos Islands, Jones offers a bit of science for everyone. Little Brown, 2006, 288 p., paperback, $15.95.
