Really like the books. Keep coming back to the book because of its breadth as well as the good enough depth to start think about the world. Kindle, Pasta dura, Pasta blanda Crisp,informative,enlightening stuff. worth every rupee,every Second spent reading this little,elegant eye opener. Numbers truly don't lie.it's the interpreters mind that does it Kindle, Pasta dura, Pasta blanda It’s been my experience that this author’s books read much like textbooks: detailed, objective, no chit chat nor anecdotes, just the facts and also a bit dry, unless you love the subject matter. This book, I found, is not as extreme and, consequently, should be accessible to a much broader readership. The topics covered are many: from living on earth, to inventions, energy production and usage, food eaten, crops grown, electric cars and related technology and so much . Each of the 71 chapters is about four pages long and usually includes an interesting plot/figure of some sort.In this book, there is a wealth of information about our world and how so many parts of it work. It is written very authoritatively by a highly knowledgeable author. This is a book that can be enjoyed by anyone and should be read, I believe, by everyone. Kindle, Pasta dura, Pasta blanda
