Impact: How Rocks from Space Led to Life, Culture, and Donkey Kong

byGreg Brennecka

Impact is Greg Brennecka's historical account of how Rocks from Space Led to Life, Culture, and Donkey Kong. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of history and science. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. Impact leaves readers with key context and a clear view of the human stakes involved. The approach makes a specialized subject understandable without stripping away its tensions or ambiguity.
