"Nothing to sneeze at."-TimeAcclaim for The Secret Life of Dust"You will never again look disparagingly upon dust. Hannah Holmes has written my favorite kind of book--one that takes a seemingly mundane subject and trumpets its significance in our lives not only on Earth, but in the Heavens."-- Dr. Neil de Grasse Tyson, Director, Hayden Planetarium and author of One Universe: At Home in the Cosmos"A fascinating journey into the unseen flecks that underpin our world and those beyond."-- Peter Tyson, author of The Eighth Continent"Witty, interesting, and absolutely terrifying."-- Atlanta Journal-Constitution"An excellent work. Dust is small, but The Secret Life of Dust is a big, and fun, accomplishment."-- Austin American-Statesman"Few browsers will put science writer Hannah Holmes' latest volume down without adding it to their to-be-read list."-- Dallas Morning News"Worth the price on its dust jacket. Holmes' book belongs on your shelf, in a dusty nook between the works of Diane Ackerman and John McPhee."-- Chicago Tribune"It's an entertaining little book. . . . After reading The Secret Life of Dust, the fluff in your vacuum cleaner will never look quite the same again."-- New Scientist"An unusual perspective on things we don't notice." -- The Sunday Times"Hannah Holmes is a science writer to watch. Who ever thought dust could so shine?"-- Kirkus Reviews
