Her book is an excellent example of everything that public outreach should be: accessibly priced, informative, and entertaining." -- Ann Kennedy Smith, Times Literary Supplement"A vivid, deeply researched intellectual history." -- Kirkus"Reviewing a great book is much like witnessing a blue moon, infrequent but captivating.
