Bill Bryson fans!
I'm about halfway through this book and it's fantastic.
For those that haven't read any of it, it's basically like a science book, for people who hate science. It's filled with interesting personalities, great mini-stories and amazing anecdotes.
So who else has read it? Did anyone find it dull? Did anyone love it?
My favourite part so far has been the explanation of humans finding dinosaurs. Apparently the first ever dinosaur bone to be discovered, was lost! They couldn't appreciate the importance of it, and basically didn't know what it was, and lost it.
