Review of eBook

Raina Abdullah, a young Palestinian woman, leads a quiet existence until the death of the young man she loves shatters her life. As she tries to make some sense of things, finds herself on a collision course with an AWOL soldier and a horrific attack that leaves her badly injured.

Half a world away in New York City, Max Bogart, working as a trader, follows the fluctuating stock exchange. And when the most powerful banker on Wall Street makes him an offer, Max sees his career skyrocketing. But nothing can prepare him for what lies ahead . . . .

The intriguing, suspenseful story, with its focus on political and financial events, weaves several plotlines together to create an imaginative tale. However, the narrative suffers in its presentation with long sections of expository prose that short-circuit both the action and the suspense. In addition, procedural errors such as having Heather examine Max’s hard drive instead of a clone of the hard drive, tend to pull readers out of the story.

As the unfolding story pulls most of the plot threads together, readers will find unexpected interconnections keep the pages turning and the astounding twist at the end is a humdinger. However, the story ends without providing an explanation for Abdul Sid Alam’s stupefying actions after risking his life for the woman and child. This feels like a massive disconnect and is certain to be particularly disappointing for the reader.

HISTORIA SOCIAL DE LA CIENCIA

John Desmond Bernal le gustaba decir que su biografía debía ser escrita en cuatro colores, en páginas intercaladas, para mostrar sus diferentes actividades, encajadas. La tradición oral difiere en cuanto al color de las páginas; blanco y negro, ciertamente para la ciencia, rojo para la política, azul para los artes, púrpura o amarillo para su vida personal. [...]

En su trabajo científico fue un gran pionero, cuyas ideas y experiencias iniciales hicieron posible muchos de los mayores avances de nuestro tiempo en la comprensión de la estructura y función en física, química y biología. [Dorothy Hodgkin (1980)En este laboratorio siempre lo vimos como el padre científico de nuestro tema. Si no fuera su imaginación en la forma de pensar sobre lo que parecía ser problemas extremadamente difíciles, y el aliento que dio a Max [Perutz] y Dorothy [Hodgkin] ya otros, personas como yo nunca habrían tenido la oportunidad de trabajar en biología molecular, y habrían sido demasiado tímidos para enfrentarse a las cuestiones verdaderamente interesantes. [Francis Crick (carta dirigida a Bernal, 1969)]… (mere)
