Title: Two thumbs DOWN
Review: I agree with those who give two thumbs DOWN to this book. No question that you can easily find used versions of this book to sell.This book will not be a prestigious member of my small library. Beckmann's major story line is his personal hate against all bad things that happened in the past. Concerning the history of Pi the book has some value, but I found nothing in it that one could not find on Internet in 5 minutes. His speculations are the only exceptions.I feel I wasted my money purchasing this book. If you have the chance to have a look into the book prior to purchase, go to chapter 5 or 8 to see the real content of the book. Don't be mislead by the first chapter. That is perhaps the only part that carries some values.
