"While I admire E.O. Wilson and find his concepts and ideas interesting, I found the flowery and poetic language used in Biophilia to be distracting. It didn't hold my attention."
"A series of personal essays from one of America's foremost entomologists and naturalists. The book is now twenty years old and a contemporary reading reveals a great deal of prescience: things that Wilson was regarding as urgent and important in the 80s (saving rain forests, reducing greenhouse gas emissions) are only now becoming culturally fashionable. It's just a shame it took so long. He also describes some fascinating imaginative tools for comprehending the vast range and mass of our planet's life."
