"An engrossing treat of a book.. Crammed with hugely enjoyable anecdotes...You'll have a wonderful time reading these reminiscences" * New Scientist *
"These essays offer the idiosyncrasy and curiosity value that we expect of good, narrative history, combined with much fine writing... Absorbing and persuasive in just the way good stories are" * Nature *
"consistently enthralling memoirs by leading thinkers...the result is a remarkably dud-free collection" * Observer *
