Florence. Spring, 1537. When Cesare Aldo investigates a report of intruders at a convent in the Renaissance city’s northern quarter, he enters a community divided by bitter rivalries and harbouring dark secrets. His case becomes far more complicated when a naked man’s body is found deep inside the convent, stabbed more than two dozen times. Unthinkable as it seems, all the evidence suggests one of the nuns must be the killer. Meanwhile, Constable Carlo Strocchi finds human remains pulled from the Arno that belong to an officer of the law missing since winter.

Very good medieval murder mystery.
Revisado: 06-04-24
I've read about 50 medieval murder mysteries, and this series ranks among the best. It's more of a mystery and thriller than a lesson in the history of everyday life. However, the politics and intrigues are quite realistic. The first book in the series was really good, but this one is even better.

Two bestselling authors first met in a televised Caltech debate on “the future of God,” one an articulate advocate for spirituality, the other a prominent physicist. This remarkable book is the product of that serendipitous encounter and the contentious - but respectful - clash of worldviews that grew along with their friendship.

Be aware of Chopra, half of the book is awful
Revisado: 02-05-13
I saw Leonard Mlodinow's name and expected a book with a content of corresponding quality. I didn't knew who is Deepak Chopra and that was the biggest mistake. The book is more like the conversation of a science advocate with lunatic or deliberate charlatan. So you will find not much of interesting science.
Seems like Mlodinow tryed to adjust for lower standarts in argumentation, so he didn't did his best. Chopra is a mistery for me - he makes so much logical mistakes with such a pathos, that I was forced to skip much of his part eventually. I've honestly tryed to follow his logic, but seems he do not use it at all.
Do not buy this book if you are interesting in:
* why people believe in dumb things
* spirituality from a rational point of view
* new science frontiers, religion, hapiness, etc.
Buy this book if you are interesting in:
* additional works of Leonard Mlodinow
