I tend to pour through these very quickly because once I start one I find it hard to put it down. Most of his stories are pretty timely regarding topics in the news - i.e. eColi, H.M.O.'s, genetics.

Once you start one you can't put it down.  Even with all the fun fast paced action they do lack substance.  ]]></body>
