In this exciting edition for younger readers, he covers the wonder and mysteries of time and space, the frequently bizarre and often obsessive scientists and the methods they used, the crackpot theories which held sway for far too long, the extraordinary accidental discoveries which suddenly advanced whole areas of science when the people were actually looking for something else (or in the wrong direction) and the mind-boggling fact that, somehow, the universe

The book is the first of its kind and is thus of great historical importance. "The history of English criticism, as Saintsbury sees it, passes through three distinct stages: (i) The initial stage of Elizabethan criticism "tentative, hesitating and scattered" trying to assimilate the numerous critical ideas scattered throughout the classical European literatures (ii) The Neo-classic period starting with Dryden and continuing beyond the
