BBC science columnist
Rose Eveleth wrote a joint review in
The New York Times of the audiobook versions of
Unstoppable and
Leonard Mlodinow's 2015 book
The Upright Thinkers. Eveleth found Nye's audiobook "easy to listen to", noting the familiarity of Nye's voice to those who have watched the children's television series
Bill Nye the Science Guy. However, Eveleth wrote that both books "stumble" because they "recycle well-known material", describing how Nye "spends a good chunk of his book talking about the setup of his extremely energy-efficient home ... Some of these stories are relevant and interesting. Other times, they feel forced, as if both authors knew that without a personal touch, their books would read like any other general primer on climate change or great men in science." Simon Warthall, in the introduction to an interview with Nye for
National Geographics "Book Talk" column, commented that
Unstoppable "mixes science and [Nye's] trademark humor". Jennifer Kay, in a review for the
Associated Press, commented on the clarity of Nye's language, writing how "Nye explains the basics of climate science without making
Unstoppable feel like a textbook." ==References==
