Discover Magazine (February, 2000) says 'InOttaviani's hands, cartooning becomes exciting education. It's atribute to Ottaviani's breezy style that one wants to dig into [the] references and learn a little nuclear physics. Now that is asuperheroic achievement.' Simon Singh, awardwinning author of TheCode Book and Fermat's Enigma writes: 'When it comes topopularising science, Jim Ottaviani's comic books do an excellentjob of telling scientific stories in a fun and absorbing way. Hislatest, Dignifying Science, is a beautifully drawn series ofstories about women who made major contributions to science andtechnology, but who have been largely forgotten...'
