It is fair to say I have spent most of my bachelor getting excited about the discoveries made about life. Most often the first phrase was ‘Brilliant!’ and the second one was ‘Why I haven’t come up with something like this before? With my high school knowledge, I should have thought of this even if…

I cannot believe I have never heard of this book till this age. Being from Turkey, how I have missed this piece. There are many details in the beginning that makes you wonder why on earth he talks about all these things? You see later on why you needed to know them. Think about your…
