The idea of elegance in science is not necessarily a familiar one, but it is an important one. With a highly readable selection of inspiringepisodes highlighting the role of beauty and simplicity in the sciences, the book also relates to important philosophical issues of inference, and Glynn ends by warning us not to rely on beauty andsimplicity alone - even the most elegant explanation can be wrong.
