Review

"I like Odenwald's willingness to admit defeat. Do other dimensions exist? 'We simply don't know,' he confesses.... Enlightening and entertaining." -- New Scientist

"The book is valuable...nowhere more so than in its inclusion of questions commonly asked but ignored in most introductory courses and texts." -- Choice
