No, definitely not easy reading. For anyone who's interested in the topic, but from a less rigorous math and biology standpoint, there's always Investigations, the title of which, as I'm sure you know, is a nod to Wittgenstein. It's one of the best popular science books I've ever read (I would call it popular science, but still not a book you want to undertake if you haven't at least taken some college level biology, physics, etc.).

Didn't know it and actually would have missed the 'nod'. Thanks

(Speaking of our dear friend, LW, have you read C Hewitt's screed against God(el))Really juicy stuff.
