I find the statement that "Euclid's Window" was well received a complete misdirection. In fact, Robert Langlands (defined by Wikipedia as "one of the most significant mathematicians of the 20th century" -- an accurate characterization) begins his review (available at www.ams.org/notices/200205/fea-langlands.pdf) of the book thus:
This is a shallow book on deep matters, about which the author knows next to nothing.
(the rest of the review is even more scathing). So Mlodinow as a scinece popularizer may sit well with some, but certainly not with others. I changed the adjective to "mixed" and added a pointer to the review.
Some suggestions for improvement as the article is expanded:

In External Links, at least the following links do not work:
About Mlodinow's Film "Beyond the Horizon"
PhysicsWeb Review of "Feynman's Rainbow"
Library Cog Review of "Feynman's Rainbow"

I suspect a pronunciation listing would be helpful to many people - but I'm afraid I don't know how Mlodinow is pronounced. Any chance someone who knows can put it in? EPAstor ( talk) 18:07, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
