    Got given a present of a copy of The Signature in the Cell while back. Is it worth a read in any way, shape or form? Is it even good for a giggle? Otherwise I'll just have to use it for firelighters.

    Who the heck would give you such tripe as a present?:eek:
    Don't burn it, the smoke from it may be hazardous to your rational brain just recycle it and borrow a biology book instead.

    Authors who have no education in science and in this particular case, evolutionary cell biology, which incidentally I do, have no business writing books about science in this fashion. I think this sums it up fairly well:

    I hereby propose that the official A&A tag should be changed from "Oh, we of little faith" to "Get in the ****ing sack". Can I get an Amen!!!
