Brian Hayes is one of the most accomplished essayists active
today--a claim supported not only by his prolific and continuing
high-quality output but also by such honors as the National
Magazine Award for his commemorative Y2K essay titled "Clock of
Ages," published in the November/December 1999 issue of "The
Sciences "magazine. (The also-rans that year included Tom Wolfe,
Verlyn Klinkenborg, and Oliver Sacks.) Hayes's work in this genre
has also appeared in such anthologies as "The Best American
Magazine Writing, The Best American Science and Nature Writing,
"and "The Norton Reader." Here he offers us a selection of his most
memorable and accessible pieces--including "Clock of
Ages"--embellishing them with an overall, scene-setting preface,
reconfigured illustrations, and a refreshingly self-critical
"Afterthoughts" section appended to each essay.
