“Life in a Shell"

[Cowboy_Ken]

One fantastic book! I wish my professors had been as insightful and willing to see how things work in our beloved charges. Layman to practitioner will get something from this wonder piece.

Thanks Yvonne. Again, I encourage all to get is book for their mental library.

You mean I don't have to read, just buy it and put it on a shelf? And my mental library will somehow get information? I've been on an edge about this book Ken. Some reviews have sorted made it sound a bit whimsical, like the review from Jennie Erin Smith.

What was your take away?

I felt Jackson took some chances simplifying, (for the layperson) subjects not covered outside of textbooks. Then again, he took chances in presenting “heavy" subjects for scholarly reading which may lose some readers. He educates on subjects we all see, just never bothered to learn. Like everyone knows sea turtles return to the same location to lay eggs, but how many take the time to learn how they do it? Jackson's book helps in the understanding of the taken for grated. Will, you, my friend, would enjoy it I think.

We've enjoyed this book. In fact, we included it in a blog post we wrote together back in the Fall, as a prep for Christmas. trtlrm.com/TgY3Ku
