Review : Infinite wisdom

13 September 1997

A little light relief needed after ploughing through Changeux鈥檚 demanding

erudite notes and, yes, the concept of infinity is slippery and demanding. But
Rucker brings welcome distraction鈥攑uzzles and the odd cartoon鈥攁nd
his clear style helps. Published by Penguin, 拢8.99, ISBN 0140262954.
