00:16Several, you could have a Feynman lecture on physics.

00:21You could have Hawkins book on time, several books.

00:26That's where you get science from.

00:29Science you just cannot read.

00:30Science without mathematics means nothing.

00:37where you keep solving equations.

00:40Science is not just literature.
