The Pequod Review:

David Deutsch's The Beginning of Infinity is a history of the development of human knowledge across a wide range of subjects — biology, physics, philosophy and history, among others. It is also a persuasive argument for why our own current conceptions of the world are almost certainly wrong or incomplete, and will someday be superseded by better ones. A love letter to human progress.
