I love reading Dawkins, and bought this as part of a complete set (in progress.) (Mr. Dawkins has a bulldog instinct that makes me shake my head.) Seems to miss the wham of Greatest Show and Ancestor's Tale. It is now in my read pile, but not by my chair.
Physically the book is as sold and came as expected.
