I know that I had promised the next review would
be on The Social Conquest of Earth by Edward Wilson.
The writing was a little less engaging than one might expect from “A Monumental Exploration of the Biological
Origins of the Human Condition” I found my mind wondering and I was unable
to really sink my teeth into the material. So tomorrows review will not be on
Edward Wilson. I will be reviewing DEBT – The First 5,000 Years, A Reversal of
Conventional Wisdom Regarding National & Personal Debt By: David Graeber
I may come back and revisit Wilson’s The Social
Conquest of Earth at a latter date.
The Slick-Rock (Irregular) Book Review is published whenever we feel like it but generally it comes out on Friday of every week.(unless it’s Jeep Week). The irregular part is to distinguish us from the many monthly, quarterly, bi-monthly and/or annual reviews you will find elsewhere. This blog is also named after certain sandstone formations in or about Moab, Utah that becomes really slippery when it rains.
