          Origin of Species. A great book, a rare case of a work that is at one and the same time highly readable, and yet the original scientific work, still valid today. And genius when you consider that Darwin did all this without having the science of genetics to underpin his observaions.

                It's not meant to be factual! Also it's blatantly plagiaristic!

                  Excellent, like its predecessors in the same series.
                  WHS. But don't read these if you need cheering up.

                      Reading "Matter" atm. He's definately becoming harder work as time goes on.

                      Excession is good , takes about half the book to get a handle on just wtf is going on though.
