Title: neither entertaining nor informative
Product review: I have in general been a great fan of Hansen's, and his book in particular about Borneo was a jewel. "Orchid Fever" trivializes almost every issue and individual that it touches. It is also extremely unpleasant to read if you dislike (as I do) the snide tone that it frequently employs as a substitute for humor. This is one of the most irritating books I have read in a long time.
