Harflerle yazılmış, İkinci Dünya Savaşı'ndan hemen sonra Londra ve Guernsey Adası'nda geçen işgal altındaki adalıların insanlıklarını nasıl korudukları ve edebiyat toplumunun bir anı üzerinde derin dostluklar kurdukları hakkında harika bir hikaye.

This book was a really pleasant surprise. I found it randomly at the library and it looked interesting. It's a unique basis for a tale and a strong YA fantasy novel. I definitely plan on reading the rest of the trilogy.

Evolutionary Psychology is a dangerous field. In all of evolutionary science, there's a lot of temptation to endorse a just-so-story that happens to fit all your current data (or worse, ignore some of the data as noise). But this is Human evolution we are talking about and thus it becomes even more important that we A) get the story right B) understand how general trends apply to individual cases and C) don't draw think that science can dictate morality. Surprisingly, the book is best on point C, showing how science can inform some moral debates but not settle them. It's also good on point B, making the qualification several times, but perhaps not forcefully enough for it to really sink in for all readers. Point A is my biggest issue. The majority of the book was well argued, well documented, and likely right. The problem is that when the author is speculating, he tends not to tell you he is. The book might be a "must read" for everyone, but it's a "must read carefully". I especially loved the use of Darwin's life for examples and the comparisons to J.S. Mill and Samuel Smiles, all of three of whom published classic works in 1859.

I had seen this book in Sainsbury's and whilst waiting I read the prologue and found it so hilarious I couldn't wait to open it up on Christmas day! This for me, is one of those books I got addicted to. I couldn't wait to get into bed and divulge into it again, finding myself up and awake a bit too late with focused vision on McIntyre's brilliant language. As I am a fan of Michael McIntyre I found it fascinating to find out about his life. I found myself chuckling away at his words, no wonder he's a comic, it seems to just come naturally. He writes greatly and hoping he might consider to write another later in life!

This is a classic, comprehensive book of Western mythology. I've used it as a resource for my teaching, and find it to be the best there is.
