    lol! I'm practically writing everything he says in my paper I have to do on this book for my class.lol! Unfortunately, I didn't really READ the book and have to hurry up and hand a paper in to my teacher. Sounds like a gross book. Why anybody would want to research and write a book on this subject is beyond me!! LOL!!

    Be sure to visit the John Snow and raise a glass. This was a wonderful and moving book. I had been fascinated by Snow for years and was strongly moved by this book.

    I thought it was his best to date and look forward to purchasing 'The Invention of Air' when it comes out.

    Sometimes you do have to invest a few pages to see where he's going. It's worth the multiangle storytelling and 'progressive' morals if you ask me.

    The book is very interesting but he isn't a great writer, and the editing on the book is terrible.

    I still highly recommend it though.
