Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 770
The explosive conclusion to Nexus and Crux. Global unrest spreads through the US, China, and beyond. Secrets and lies set off shockwaves of anger, rippling from mind to mind. Riot police battle neutrally linked protestors. Armies are mobilized. Political orders fall. Nexus-driven revolution is in here. Against this backdrop a new breed of post-human children are growing into their powers.

Furious ranting review. Worst narration ever

Poor performance. Let down from earlier books.
Revisado: 05-09-18
The book is unusually larger than the earlier series. Maybe this is because the narrator does a poor job. Maybe there are too many plot elements (although there aren't). It was a real shame that the last book was done this bad. Coming with high expectations from the earlier ones.

What is the nature of space and time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the universe fit within us? There's no better guide through these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed astrophysicist and best-selling author Neil deGrasse Tyson. But today, few of us have time to contemplate the cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in digestible chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day.

Bunch of disjointed essays
Revisado: 12-11-17
You can't listen to it while travelling. Requires a bunch of attention to get through some parts. But very interesting if you have some basic physics knowledge.

Historia4 out of 5 stars 107
The definitive history of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the Pentagon agency that has quietly shaped war and technology for nearly 60 years. Founded in 1958 in response to the launch of Sputnik, the agency's original mission was to create "the unimagined weapons of the future". Over the decades, DARPA has been responsible for countless inventions and technologies that extend well beyond military technology.

Blandly written story about DARPA politics
Revisado: 04-18-17
What disappointed you about The Imagineers of War?
I thought the book would be more about the imagineers themselves - their ideas and the way that they advanced technology. Sadly, the book is just about William Godel and the politics that he played to get his work done.
Has The Imagineers of War turned you off from other books in this genre?
I would hope not.
What three words best describe Hillary Huber’s performance?
Monotonous in many parts, dialogues had passion, There is only so much she could do
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment
