Quantum - reviewed in Odyssey magazine, South Africa

'Beautifully written ... a tour de force that covers the fierce debate about the foundations of reality that gripped the scientific community through the 20th century.'

I came to the site wanting to ask a question, and was hoping for a contact email for the author.

I'd be happy to post it here, or if possible could you pass on a means of contact to at kester@vaux.net

Many thanks in anticipation, and commendations again on a very good read.

Abit of bio

I have degrees in physics and philosophy. I co-wrote Science and the Retreat from Reason, which introduced key areas of modern science while defending notions of social progress and scientific advance.

Published in 1995, it was critically acclaimed as a ‘corrective to the hype’, ‘thought-provoking’, and ‘undoubtedly one of the best introductions one can find to the crisis of confidence within science itself’.

I've written and reviewed for various publications including the Guardian, Independent, Times, Daily Telegraph, New Scientist, Financial Times, Daily Telegraph, Wall Street Journal, Literary Review and Tehelka. I was Consulting Science Editor at the UK edition of Wired and live in north London.
