Connections

The book weaves together different moments in science and history to show their links. I'm curious whether this approach was planned from the start or developed during research.

Some links felt almost uncanny—like how one event led to a totally different breakthrough. Did these surprises make others see history in a new light?

His narrative makes complex ideas accessible, but does it also oversimplify some of the nuances? I'd love to hear others' thoughts on this balance.
