Richard Fortey’s (wonderful) Life is an April paperback worth picking up. A
mixture of palaeontology and personal tales—all with a point. Ted Nield
loved the book when he reviewed it here
(2 August 1997, p 42). As he said, “the
tale of life needs constant retelling. Thank some happy accident of history that
we have Fortey to tell it to us anew.” Published by HarperCollins, £9.99,
ISBN 000638420X.
