I don't know what you don't know. I don't even know what I don't know. Sun in a Bottle is about a subject that I don't know anything about. Rather than embarrass myself by showing my ignorance, here is the product description from Amazon's site:
With his knack for translating science into understandable, anecdotal prose and his trademark dry humor, award-winning science writer Charles Seife presents the first narrative account of the history of fusion for general readers in more than a decade. Tracing the story from its beginning into the twenty-first century, Sun in a Bottle reveals fusion's explosive role in some of the biggest scientific scandals of all time. Throughout this journey, he introduces us to the daring geniuses, villains, and victims of fusion science. With the giant international fusion project ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) now under construction, it's clear that the science of wishful thinking is as strong as ever. This book is our key to understanding why.
Note that last sentence: This book is our key to understanding why. I'm still clueless.
However, if this book appeals to you, Sun in a Bottle is super cheap today for only $1.75.
