  "George Klein, a Hungarian Swedish Jewish atheist cancer pioneer .
  . . writes on Wagner and sex, being caught on a Cuban airliner
  forced to land in fascist Portugal, Sweden's puritanical
  pornography, and how old viruses get on well with people... His
  anecdotes rank with the best. . . Klein is a first class teacher.
  You learn science the intelligent way. No gimmicks, just
  simplicity and clarity. Klein adores life with a spiritual
  fervour. Add to that a streak of wry worldiness and you have an
  original thinker, a rational romantic whose work will disappoint
  cynics, frustrate clerics and bring a warm glow to the hearts of
  agnostics."--Daniel Green, Financial Times
