This phrase in a review of a technical text summarizes my personal opinion on energy. [View all]

For Christmas (shhhhh) I bought my son a text on Advanced Analysis of Variance (AANOVA), which features approaches to the Design of Experiments through statistical concepts. This type of statistical analysis, which first arose in social sciences, is increasingly important in the physical sciences, particularly in the use of experimentally validating the results of advanced simulations, as in very complex phase diagrams.

Of course, once you buy a present, you second guess it.

A review, by G. H. Lander, of the following book - which I might have considered and should certainly end up in his personal library some day - has a statement that summarizes my view of the key to save the world.

The book is this one: Elements of Slow-Neutron Scattering: Basics, Techniques, and Applications

The remark in the review is this one:

Every neutron is a good neutron.

That about sums up the hope of the world in my view.

For the record though, I'm more in love with fast neutrons, but slow neutrons are good too.
