The reader acts out the novel as if it were a movie, bringing it to life.

Sheila Jasanoff writes about the technologies that are impacting us in various and profound ways. Those who would like to know the background information on the technological incidents that created headlines and controversies will learn a lot from this book. However, what I like most of all is the reading, which is clear and easy to follow. I listened to the whole book in only a few days while driving back and forth from work. It's delightful.

What distinguishes this reading from others is that the author himself is reading it and he puts all kinds of passions into it in a way that only the author can do it. The story itself may be a well worn one, but the author succeeds in transporting us back to the time of Jesus himself and some decades afterward, the time of immense upheaval in the Jewish world.

Any additional comments?

This is an academic book. As such it is not a light reading or listening that you can do while doing something else. It requires a lot of effort just to understand what Kahnemann has to say. Besides, the book often refers to figures that are only available graphically and thus cannot be listened to. So while you listen to this book driving, please be careful that most of your brain processes will be used in trying to understand the book so the driving could be impaired.
Nonetheless, this is an important book that deals with how people arrive at their decisions in such a way that confounds typical economic, rational thinking. No wonder Kahnemann works opens up a whole new field of academic study.

Would you consider the audio edition of A Short History of Nearly Everything to be better than the print version?

The book is a collection of anecdotes and various stories of scientific discoveries and personalities. Those of you who expect a straightforward scientific textbook might be disappointed. Though Bryson does provide some content of science, that is not the focal point of the book, which is Bryson's own telling of stories of science. Those of you would want to know a little bit of everything will get quite a lot here. Matthews' reading of the book is excellent - I particularly like the way he handles foreign names. I read the entire book while I drove to work for five consecutive days. Very enjoyable.
