		<description><![CDATA[Electric Universe: How Electricity Switched On The Modern World
David Bodanis
Rating: 
I just finished this last week, and it was a fascinating read. Covering everything from radar to static electricity, autobiography to science, it&#8217;s definitely worth picking up a  copy  
I&#8217;ve written a full review on LibraryThing, here.

<p>I read quite a lot, and as I like giving my opinions (that&#8217;s what this blog&#8217;s for, after all) I thought I&#8217;d start writing some reviews <img src='http://www.guyrintoul.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> However, as external websites provide fuller information on the books, the authors, and other readers&#8217; opinions than I&#8217;ll ever be able to on here, I&#8217;ve decided to put them on LibraryThing. My first review is of Mark Thomas&#8217; investigation into the global arms and torture trade, which made for some fascinating - yet horrifying - reading.</p>
