Editor reviews

Dr. Berendzen has a very unique talent: he speaks extemporaneously and manages to sound as though he's reading from a book or a script. Of course, it helps that he has an exhaustive knowledge of his subject - Berendzen is to physics what Seuss was to rhyming couplets. Pulp Physics is a remarkably informative program, bringing even the scientifically inept immediately into a concrete understanding of the universe around them. It's very much like sitting in on a long and interesting lecture by a profound professor. Highly recommended! (Leslie G.)
