Title: Unique and Entertaining
Product review: If you're the type of person who, when you're reading a book, likes to turn to your spouse, friend, whatever and say "hey, did you know ... ?", you're going to love this book. I read lots of science books, and it's often hard to find something that I find both new and interesting enough to mention to a non-science junkie. Not here. Thumbs, Toes and Tears has all sorts of fascinating little tidbits mixed in among a very well written narrative. It pulls together all sorts of seemingly unrelated materials in order to tell an important story. It reminded me a bit of the old PBS series called "Connections' with James Burke, although without some of the strained connections that sometimes appeared on that show. Finally, the size of the book was good. It was long enough to tell the story in detail, but short and light enough that you could lie in bed and read it without injuring yourself if you dropped it by accident.
