  • A Short History of Nearly Everything
    • Rated 4 stars

    This is a very interesting book about scientific discoveries. It is the story of major discoveries and the inside stories narrated in a simple and humorous way. It deals with almost all the major scientific breakthroughs and tells us about many of the real heroes whose name does not find a place in the history.

    This is a remarkable story about the making of Oxford English Dictionary which took seventy years.The Editor of the book was James Murray and there were several associates who helped him in bringing the book they used to be called word catchers who read a large number of books to find words,the change in meaning the word has undergone etc one of these assistant was Dr.W.C.Minor who spent 20 years in a mental asylum in Berkshire,England who had accidently killed a man when he was suffering from mental disorder.This book is a remarkable story of the history of English Dictionary,about Dr.Minor,Jame Murray the great scholar etc.Remarkably told by Simon Winchester.A wonderful book

  • The Tao of Physics
    • Rated 0 stars

    It is a highly popular book in which Fritjof Kapra says that though the ways of Moderen physics and eastern mysitcism are different they reach at the same point of view.The first four chapters are very interesting after that Capra goes into physics which may be tough. One may agree or disagree with Capra but this is a fanstastic book

    Novel is set in the backdrop of Moscow Trials,in which 70% of top communist leaders were eliminated by Stalin(1934-38).Story unfolds through the diary of Rubashev a communist leader who was arrested on charges of a conspiracy to kill the No.1 (Stalin). Brilliant and analytical . Truly a class novel.No doubt

    What I liked about this book was its readability.The pace it sets is truly amazing.Though I was a bit disappointed with the end.Especially Teabing coming as the villain
