(To keep my nose to the grindstone…)
Book reviews. EXCELLENT new book on why the Mega- Predators are ecologically vital. Science, new and rediscovered (hint: Leopold’s Kaibab redux.) “Whale killers.” Science as well as emotion, written not typed, and re- wilding too!
More reviews: Evolution vs ID, Matthiessen’s Florida (still unfinished), Chinese wolf novel ditto. Oldish heavy book that seems to prove Central Asia hand Owen Lattimore’s innocence of Soviet spying. Tim Mackintosh- Smith on Ibn “Battutah” as he spells it. Old Afghanistan (what the HELL happened anyway??) I can always read…
How did you get it so soon!? I think my copy is getting here today…wasn’t it released today? Damn. I never get to be one up on you. *grin*
