Review from previous edition He writes with such verve.. a remarkable tour de force of exposition * Ian Tattersall, TLS *
Impressive and innovative. Few, if any, authors could (or would dare to) cover such a massive topic * Mark Ridley, University of Oxford *
Brilliant... He has used his historical erudition and stylistic grace to produce a little gem that contains a rich array of fascinating and exotic historical examples * John Gray, author of Straw Dogs *
A fascinating book, refreshingly slim, full of interest and food for thought * The Spectator *
