I received an ARC of Evolution Gone Wrong through Netgalley courtesy of the publisher。 I am always a little weary diving into non-fiction books especially if they are related to science。 Will they be too dense or perhaps too advanced for a beginner like me。 With Evolution Gone Wrong, the author Alexander Bezzerides was able to touch upon numerous areas of human evolution and how it currently affects our everyday lives in a way that provided plenty of information without overwhelming the reader。 I received an ARC of Evolution Gone Wrong through Netgalley courtesy of the publisher。 I am always a little weary diving into non-fiction books especially if they are related to science。 Will they be too dense or perhaps too advanced for a beginner like me。 With Evolution Gone Wrong, the author Alexander Bezzerides was able to touch upon numerous areas of human evolution and how it currently affects our everyday lives in a way that provided plenty of information without overwhelming the reader。 A great book with the perfect amount of humour for anyone looking for a beginner understanding of certain aspects of human evolution that humans deal with regularly。 。。。more

Great science writing in a wonderful bookI loved this book。 Alex Bezzerides is a great science writer。 The book has everything I want in science writing。 Bezzerides gives good explanations of the science and writes with a great sense of humor。 Indeed, some of his writing made me laugh out loud。 He also puts himself into the story, creating a closer bond with the reader。 Peter Davidson provided great illustrations that helped clarify the information。 I think the book could have used more illustra Great science writing in a wonderful bookI loved this book。 Alex Bezzerides is a great science writer。 The book has everything I want in science writing。 Bezzerides gives good explanations of the science and writes with a great sense of humor。 Indeed, some of his writing made me laugh out loud。 He also puts himself into the story, creating a closer bond with the reader。 Peter Davidson provided great illustrations that helped clarify the information。 I think the book could have used more illustrations, not to clarify any additional information, but just because they are so great。 This was one of the books, that when I got to the end, I was sad to say goodbye to the author and illustrator。 I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in science。 Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins for the advance reader copy。 。。。more
