What reading level is Timeline book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
“More slits mean fewer bars? Why?”
“The usual explanation is what I’ve drawn — the light passing through the slits acts like two waves that overlap. In some places they add to each other, and in other places they cancel each other out. And that makes a pattern of alternating light and dark on the wall. We say the waves interfere with each other, and that this is an interference pattern.”
Chris Hughes said, “So? What’s wrong with all that?”
“What’s wrong,” Gordon said, “is that I just... gave you a nineteenth-century explanation. It was perfectly acceptable when everybody believed that light was a wave. But since Einstein, we know that light consists of particles called photons. How do you explain a bunch of photons making this pattern?”
There was silence. They were shaking their heads.
David Stern spoke for the first time. “Particles aren’t as simple as the way you have described them.

This is an amazing book. It has a fantastic use of words and is very exciting, the beginning was great and caught my full attention. I hope Michael Crichton creates a new book like this one. I am an extreme critic on books. However, this is a fabulous book.
