Fascinating and often frustrating!<br /><br />Sigrid, wow!! Now I know why you always have such insightful tweets at least! ;)<br /><br />Victoria, I love Gould, and Heinrich too. Some ravens have recently moved into our neighborhood, and watching them is really enhanced by knowing a bit about them. And may I say that I'm envious of your Temple Grandin book? I haven't read any by her yet.TheFrogBaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829641134331952750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498764508182405166.post-22649573252462999662011-01-20T17:57:19.682-08:002011-01-20T17:57:19.682-08:00Wow, sounds like two very different books! The Gog...Wow, sounds like two very different books! The Gogo fossil book sounds very interesting - I try so hard to read books like that. Sometimes I succeed (Stephen Jay Gould, Bernd Heinrich) and sometimes I fail (John A Livingston).<br /><br />Christmas is a time of book-giving in our household too - this year I added to my James Herriot collection, my John Le Carre spy collection, and a book by Temple Grandin.Victoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10349189075381853197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498764508182405166.post-18967784688666880292011-01-20T13:52:34.495-08:002011-01-20T13:52:34.495-08:00Ahahahahaah.

Okay that's...Menstrual cycle as a plot device? Okay that's intriguing. I love the title too, and heaven knows I can geek out on books about animal evolution. Ooooh I shouldn't have read this post - I have at least seven months worth of books to read already, and seeing as how half of them are library books I really have to stop adding to the pile!<br /><br />I do want to add, though, I like the sound of the author addressing the negative impact of infighting on research. It's always so frustrating when you hear about fascinating debates and researches stalling at a political level.tattytiarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18408220720084181008noreply@blogger.com
