Distribution: na Organization: NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif. Lines: 21 Keywords: PBS, I walked into Printer's, Inc. bookstore last evening and saw the book based on the series. The writing looks much more interesting as are the sources. A couple of the next episodes also have interesting topics. (I did not buy the book, only rarely, I use libraries more, but....) I will have to talk to a climbing partner who works as a physicist at the Exploratorium and will ask him for his opinions. P.S. The Nova on the Exploratorium is more interesting. Science isn't just sitting around philosphizing. It's a really neat process.
