Q.366

In a review/blurb of this book, author Philip Pullman wrote:

"Exhilarating. The clearest and most beautifully written introduction to science I've ever read. Again and again I found myself saying "Oh! So that's how genes work!" (or stars, or tectonic plates, or all the other things he explains). Explanations I thought I knew were clarified; things I never understood were made clear for the first time. My favourite adjective of praise has always been "clear", and this book has clarity all the way through."
"The Magic of Reality" is this author's first book for a younger audience. Who is this best-selling scientist-author?
