Industry reviews
"Free of sensationalism, this is popular science at its most lucid and entertaining."
Publishers Weekly - Genevieve Stuttaford (05/27/1996)

"John and Mary Gribbin do an excellent job explaining this grim branch of science, and how, in the future, these threats could be circumvented by nudging the threatening object aside to set it on a different course. Their book should be required reading for anyone who cares about the long-term future."
Literary Review - Adrian Berry (07/19/1996)

"In a work that is part science history, part ballistic apocalypse, the Gribbins explain in splendidly lucid prose how researchers came to believe that dinosaur extinction 65 million years ago was caused..."
Washington Post Book World - Curt Suplee (10/20/1996)

"A well written and comprehensive discussion of a sobering but inevitably fascinating subject."
McClatchy
