Has a lot of really interesting information in. A good background into each of the scientists and how they came to invent their creation.

My only issue is the format lends itself to a very shallow investigation of each subject, I’d of definitely preferred a deeper dive into each subject.

Very interesting…especially some of the weapons. I liked the highlighted sections the best because of the different facts that I never knew.
