    Most Amazing Story in all of Science.
  

*by G***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2011*

The story of how Fred Hoyle predicted that Carbon would have a certain resonance is already an amazing story. But the version I had heard before was not nearly as interesting as Chown's version. I literally could not put the book down. For example, Fred Hoyle was visiting Cal Tech when he asked the experimental physicists there if there could be such a resonance. The physicists first of all discussed how they could have missed this resonance if it existed, and luckily for Hoyle they found a loop hole in quantum mechanics whereby they might have missed it. So then they looked for it and Hoyle held his breath for 10 days and yes, the resonance was there. The physicist who went out on a limb and gave Hoyle the benefit of the doubt and took his suggestion seriously was rightly rewarded with a Nobel prize.

    it seems like a cool book
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2017*

I honestly don't remember buying this. It just appeared in my mailbox. I think I was drunk or something. Anyway, it seems like a cool book. Definitely well-written, but a little too generic for my taste. I hope to gift it to some science-enthusiastic kid later on in my life.

    The Magic Furnace
  

*by E***F on Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2013*

If you read any physics books in your life, this one should be the first. No need to repeat what others posted about this book. Just read it and it will provoke magical thoughts in your head. It will describe why the Big Bang theory is true, why stars do what they do, how elements from the lightest to the heaviest are manufactured inside Red giant stars.. And how stars die so we can live.
