5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate Gould essay collection, 28 Oct 2003
This truly is the ultimate (as in last) collection of Gould's essays from nature. Is it his best? Kind of hard to say. I found it much more emotionally stirring than many of the previous collections and I definitely see that as positive. (Gould has always been more or less personal in his essays as a good popular writer should but this time he's kicked it up a notch.) The problem with rating essay collections is that they generally span such a large range of subjects, especially true in Gould's case, so there will always be some essays that don't interest some readers. No matter, Gould has a flair for taking apparently mundane topics dealing with things you never knew existed and making them interesting.

Bottom line, if you've read any of Gould's essay collections before and liked them, then this will be right up your alley. If you've read nothing of Gould's then this is as good a place as any to start.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exellent as usual, 3 Oct 2006
By C. A. Gallagher (Bristol) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As usual Stephen Jay Gould presents a selection of essays covering a breathtaking span of subject matter. I found this particular volume perhaps a little less accessible than previous collections, but each subject is treated with his characteristic erudition, humanity and humility. His death in 2002 remains a sad loss to the scientific community and world at large.
