    Obviously “Gravity” gets lighter near the end.

    “Intelligent Design” by Doctor Mel – 1 star out of 5. I thought Dr. Mel might be able to explain this topic, but my faith was misplaced.

    Actually, that cover looks like the one for “Gravitation” by Misner, Thorne, and Wheeler:

    It isn’t so much that you can’t put it down – at over 1300 pages, you can hardly pick it up!

    The book is actually “Antigravity”. “I just couldn’t put it down”

    “Gravity” should have been something like “A very heavy read”. “I couldn’t put it down” would be better suited to a book called Antigravity.

    Or how about a book titled, “Helium: The Lighter Side of Gases”?

    His “String Theory for Dummies” had a lot of promising plot threads, but the ending left me hanging.
