Synopsis

John Greening's remarkable Omniscience takes its title from a long playful sequence at the core of this work. The book examines Darwin, Bunsen burners, Newton, and Alchemy among other things, sharing all we know while obliterating us from the universe. Rhetorically stunning, emotionally charged, and meticulously constructed, Omniscience makes perfect, profound sense.
