Judaism, Science & Math 

Did you know that "110 silkworms shook their heads 300,000 times each to produce the silk for a Shabbos tie"? This is typical of the entertaining tidbits that introduce the chapters of this fascinating book. In the hands of Rabbi Avrohom Katz (Tuvia Cohen), science is not dry. It is interesting - often amusing - and he uses it as a window on the wisdom of the Creator. The author is a humorist, a scientist, and an excellent writer. He looks at our everyday world and sees the most unlikely things. He begins with a look at a familiar phenomenon or a quirk of human nature and presents it with classic dry British wit. Chapter after chapter, the author opens our eyes to a fresh view of the universe. His prescient observations shed light on the purpose and design of our world - and help us "see" the One Who created it. This is an unusually enjoyable book - and an immensely useful one! It's a pleasure and a treasure. - from Amzon
