Recommended by Adrian Selbly and I am enjoying it. It is always good to read a bit of SciFi and KSR writes some amazing books!

Mantell never gave up and now Owen is on the scene.

And Priests, who were the most educated class by far it appears, both argue for and against Creation by Design.

Looking back from 2020 (Year of Hell as it shall become known) on the burgeoning science of Geology and Palaeontology it is easy to pick holes and chuckle at their naivety, but really should be impressed by the conclusions they drew with little evidence.

There are some great fights, and a lot of emotion near the end... just reading the letters now (some bittersweet, some full of longing). Excellent!

A lot of examination of how teams work, and how they fail. Interesting examples are used and the concept of dominance vs prestige - if it really is a versus.

Interesting research based evidence on how teams work more efficently if they have a diversity of background and thinking.
