Review

"[One of] the science books every self-taught genius should have read this year." -- Discover

" Rivers in Time is rich in information and ideas... masterfully portrays for nonpaleontologists how data are collected from the fossil record and then used to test various concepts. The section on the modern mass extinction is superb, and it should concern us all... Highly recommended." -- Choice
