The sampan and the galleon

The Sampan and The Galleon is a peculiar book. The style of the writing is forthright, candid and provocative. The text wanders through a series of arguably disjointed philosophical, scientific and biographical themes, which, when melded together, present a unique cameo of an individual attempt to scrutinise the significance, or, perhaps more to the point, insignificance of human life. It is probably fair to say that the reader will be either enthralled or appalled by the treatment of some issues; maybe both, in some cases. Either way, the book makes a reasoned and informed case for a critical reappraisal of many ideas that impact on the contemporary human situation. - Publisher
