Enjoyed

Revisado: 04-16-22

Very good book. Amazing to see all the ways that fungi live, grow, change, communicate support and so many more. A good mix of personal stories and facts. I knew fungi were important but great to better understand it. Author is a good narrator.

Pretty good

Revisado: 04-16-22

I have a hard time understanding shakespere. The old english is tough for me to process and I’ve only studied a couple plays in school. So not a huge fan. So interesting to hear a story about Shakespeare’s story. It seems to be a compelling argument of North’s strong influence (at a minimum) on Shakespeare’s (?) plays. A good story but for someone who doesn’t know the plays there was too much minutia for my likings. I suspect fans of the plays or Tudor England would get more from it. I enjoyed learning about Elizabethan England and that period of history with the intrigue. Good not great for my taste. A nice perspective and view on the plays and the times. I’m more interested to read the plays now.

Enjoyed it. Pretty well written. I read lots of science books and have good physics understanding but i learned a lot have having the different em radiation laid out on how they differ. Finally have the basics sorted out in my head.

Good views on the world of recovery. Good writer - not great. Disappointed that there’s no magic recovery bullet except for sleep, rest and time.

Good if you like comics. A bit too much minutia. A bit more editing would be good.

Fascinating and overwhelming

Revisado: 06-17-18

A rapid summary of 4.5 billion years of earth. Far too much information to remember many details. The overwhelming details provide a strong image and sense of the vast changes that have continually changed the planet. The science and analysis used by researchers to create a plausible and reasonable understanding of what happened and why are awesome. You finish the book with a strong sense of what a brief moment in time we occupy - but still learn how our short lives are currently affecting the planet. Our impact on the earth will have reverberating impact on the structure and fabric of earth for millions of earths - or even until the sun eventually swallows us up.

While this book was about this third rock from the sun, it made me think about humanity and our place in the universe. very cool book.
