An absolutely outstanding look at a fascinating hypothetical. The Author does a brilliant job of making this read as if it's something out of a science fiction novel. The writing is crisp and rapier-like in its precision. Not a word is wasted. While the topic is quite scientifically dense the Author makes it splendidly accessible. The quotes and commentary are exacting and add tremendously to the interesting and informative nature of the piece. An unequivocally worthwhile read. Five stars!
