Before diving with sharks be sure to read this...
Revisado: 05-08-05
I read this book as I was preparing to go scuba diving with sharks in Honduras. It was a fascinating read, dispelling many of the false ideas that people have about sharks. I began to appreciate these majestic animals for their beauty, not the stereotype of killer monsters. When I did dive with sharks (no cage)they were around on all sides, 3-4 meters long and I was transfixed by their beauty. Thank you Peter for setting the record straight.

A to Z review of Astronomy essentials
Revisado: 12-25-03
This is not so much a "book" as a "chat". Unscripted, it is like have a PhD in astronomy ride to work with you for a couple of weeks and tell you what we know about the universe. You won't find Bryson's excellent writing style, but it never pretends to be that. I completely enjoyed it.

Bill Bryson has been an enormously popular author both for his travel books and for his books on the English language. Now, this beloved comic genius turns his attention to science. Although he doesn't know anything about the subject (at first), he is eager to learn, and takes information that he gets from the world's leading experts and explains it to us in a way that makes it exciting and relevant.

Fascinating science - - engaging writing.
Revisado: 12-25-03
I've listened to this over and over. I don't think I've ever said "Wow!" or laughed out loud so much when driving by myself. Although he deals with profound and far reaching subjects, from the Big Bang to geology to DNA, he does it in a way that is affable, and very understandable. Bryson is a first-rate writer, and his light English accent has a way of making his understated humor even more entertaining. Listening to this book, I felt, I still feel, profoundly aware of how wonderful it is that there is life at all in the universe, and how absurd we are when we fail to cherish and protect it at all cost. Bravo, Bill! P.S. Also loved "A Walk in the Woods."
