Fletcher, Seth

Recommended for all readers interested in astronomy, general science, the nature of scientific collaboration, or humanity's search to understand the universe.

There are many points of interest here, beginning with the cast of characters—Fletcher has a knack for getting good quotes. His description of the technical aspects of the battery boom will appeal to general science readers, but the story's strong human angle—where determination, creativity, and greed get wonderful display—should interest all readers.
