[Liriope · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is an extremely good textbook on the subject. It's very readable, you can actually get into it, and having to read the chapters doesn't seem like the chore it does with many textbooks. It has some minor cons that made me very, very angry, like how the authors glossed over the downsides of CFL lightbulbs and completely misrepresented gene patenting. I suppose it's always a wise idea to never rely on one source for your information because there will inevitably be biases of some kind from the writer. Always find out all sides of a story.

I still highly recommend the book and it's accurate and fair on most things.

A bit too cursory for my level of interest.
