[Kami · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ok I skimmed this one but I do want to read it more thoroughly. I LOVE the Biosphere in Arizona. I want to go visit it someday. This book was written before they sealed it up so it doesn't have the results of the experiment. The writing is fun for a very science heavy topic. Would have liked more pictures but it was good.
