The following review appeared in the 1996 summer issue of The Masthead, a publication of the Massachusetts Association of Science Teachers, the state chapter of the National Science Teachers Association.

I have to write just a few words about the two most sensational texts I have ever reviewed: one is What is Quantum Mechanics? A Physics Adventure and the other is Who is Fourier? A Mathematical Adventure. These are published by the Language Research Foundation Trust. They relate learning science with learning a language, and, it works, beautifully. Of course, as the teacher, you must know your math and Schrodinger's equations, etc., but what a joy to behold! There is just too much content to be said here other than it gives the student [any reader!], his class and his family a chance to truly understand what quantum mechanics is, what it's measuring and why it has to be used. Based on all the great historical figures of science the book whips you through fast-paced thinking situations, and then says not to [be] bothered [by] all that - just get "this much" out of it for now. It is ideal for college, yet you'd swear it is an elementary science or math text. Just take a look at them whenever you have a chance.
