Turned out to be really good. Avoided being entirely theoretical (in the sense of hypothetical) like a lot of stuff these days is. I already hated Schroedinger and disliked Einstein, turns out they were both on the same side of a debate that I was totally on the other side of, too. Really good Jewish propaganda of sorts in here, it goes to show you how awesome we are :D 
 As an aside, the Nobel prize stuff was kinda strange. Being a disciple of Nabokov and a literary person at all, the Nobel prize for literature is one of the biggest jokes in the academic world. You can look here at the 1974 event that cemented such status: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Pr... It was weird to be back in a world where the prize meant something, and it really seemed to mean a lot in this book.
