About the Author

Richard Hammond loves cars and science. As the author of Can You Feel the Force?, cohost of one British television show about cars (Top Gear), and the host of another about science (Brainiac), his dreams come true on a daily basis. His passion for learning has also taken him around the world in search of the Holy Grail (he didn't find it) for British television. He is married with two children.
