Short Review: I love the title. Gave up on the book half way through. It is a slog. I got the audiobook which was probably a mistake (but it was the cheapest version.) I kept thinking, just because someone is good in one area does not mean that they are good enough to comment on another area. But in the end Robinson usually came around and had some good thoughts. But the journey just wasn't worth it. I made it through right about 50%. But life it too short.
