Physics for Future Presidents: The Science Behind the Headlines Audiobook

" This was a good book, the science accurate and understandable to the lay person, and yet not boring for those of us with physics/engineering/math backgrounds. The only thing I didn't really like was the author's political bias poked through more often than I really care to read in a science book, even if it is written for "future [politicians:]" "

" Learned a lot reading this - makes the information very accessible. "

" Super-readable overview on numerous physic topics. "

" FANTASTIC science book for the curious non-scientist. Gives you a great background on every important scientific topic you'll hear in the news. Easy to read and very interesting. I recommend to anyone! "

" Interesting read. Good general science read for non-scientists. "

" Physics and Policy...a great read. "

" There is a lot to digest in this book, but I liked the breadth, and the lack of political bias. I listened to the audio book, but then checked out the print version to re-read some of the more dense portions. "

" Yep, it's official. As soon as I finish this one I'm launching my 2012 campaign. Eat your heart out Sarah Palin. It's a pretty good guide to current issues and I think it's pretty accurate. . .written by a professor at Berkeley. "

" Such a good book. I highly recommend it to anyone. "

" Amazing book! Should be required reading for ALL HS students. "

" Fascinating look at the science that *should* be affecting policy decisions, though it often doesn't. For example, while a nuclear bomb is a scary proposition, the reality is that terrorists could probably not build one or if they could, it would not do much harm. "

" I hated high school physics and I loved this book. It made the science that affects our daily lives understandable and relevant. I wish that the people that scream at us from the TV about the end of the world would spend an afternoon with Dr. Muller. "
