Journal Entry 1 by sjhoward from Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear United Kingdom on Friday, April 11, 2003
Richard Fortey is a scientist, not an author, and it shows. Whilst this book is interesting, it is supremely dull. There seems to be no basic level of understanding at which it is aimed: It seemed patronising in parts which I had a fair grounding in, yet baffling in new concepts.
This is not a book I would particularly recommend, except to those with a specific interest in Natural History.
