In Measure for Measure, Thomas Levenson offers a compelling account of how scientific thinking development from the day 2,500 years ago when Pythagoras discovered the musical scale to the present day. The story unfolds through the tales of instruments scientific and musical: the organ, the microscope, the still, the scales, Stradivari's miraculous violins and cellos, computers, and synthesizers. What emerges is a unique portrait of science itself as an instrument, our single most powerful way of understanding the world. Yet perhaps the most important invention of modern science has been the power to countenance its own limitations, to find the point beyond which science can explain no more, to rediscover that science, like music, is an art.Binding Type: Paperback

Amazing Men Watch
Color: black watch 76
I recently purchased the Olev men's watch, and I’m very impressed with its quality and design. The watch looks elegant on the wrist and feels durable, with a comfortable fit for daily wear. The timekeeping is accurate, and the materials feel premium for the price. It’s perfect for both casual and formal occasions. I would definitely recommend this watch to anyone looking for a stylish and reliable accessory.

A nice daily watch
Color: red watch for men 76
This watch does look good in person, however, I bought it an extremely discounted price. The band is the same generally accepted, plastic-like band you will find in less expensive watches but it's bright color makes it stand out.
The mini dials on the watch face do not move, so I personally would not pay over $100 for any similar watch. (It's original asking price was near 3x's that).
I'm happy with it, which is why I still gave it 4 stars. At a low price, I would buy this in other colors to match my outfits.

Stunning Automatic Watch With TopTier Durability and Precision
Color: Grey
“I got this Tissot PRX for my cousin’s birthday and bro fell in LOVE instantly.
This thing keeps time like a beast, never slows down, never lags. Automatic movement, so no batteries, no drama.
Durability? Stupid good. You can hit it, bump it, live life rough, it still looks box fresh.
Size wise it was almost perfect. I just had to remove two links, nothing big.
It’s light, functional, comfortable, doesn’t weigh you down, doesn’t get in the way but more importantly I can say this watch is in everyone’s eyesight when we wear it. Cause of course I had to get another one!
Basically. I gave him a very nice piece as a gift, and now he’s walking around like he owns Switzerland.
