Because Lucy said to just post them straight. I guess non-fiction books about science and histories really don't have that many spoilers.
Chapter 7 is somewhat dull. I get the general impression (especially at the end, where he was writing how everyone was cheering for the football guy and not for the astronomy guy and how the top two science award had to be split between the astronomy guy and a biology person who worked out the digestive tracts of termites) (I'm thinking the lady who gave the lecture on endosymbiosis, and if that's the case, she DESERVED the prize, if not for showing us key proof for a part of eukaryotic evolution, then for sticking to it when all the male scientists made fun of her for being a woman who didn't know science).
The "panel" thing annoyed me. Part of it because he's basing an entire argument on the concluding remarks of papers (what each scientist puts in there varies, some choose to reiterate their argument, some tend to take a step back to the broader perspective, therefore it's not fair to compare them, since stylist differences can result in the comparison of two different things). Also I didn't agree with his point distribution, thought that could just be me not knowing enough about astronomy (which I don't).
