I can't help but think if I actually finished this when I started it in summer of 2009 I might've found genetics/biochem sophomore year a lot more interesting and would've done better, but that's playing the coulda shoulda woulda game. Fascinating read, especially considering what it would take to produce atavistic features in a chicken.

This book was given to me by my father many years ago. Why? I'm not sure. I guess like most kids, I was into dinosaurs and earning about them, like animals. Maybe I was doing a report on them at the time. Either way, somehow I ended up with this book and I can't seem to remember how.

After finally reading this years later, I actually found this interesting. I think the time this was given to me it would be over my head. Needless to say, this book is actually an easy read. This was obviously written for the everyday person rather then a dinosaur-know-it all.

I'm still interested in dinosaurs I discovered. Maybe it's because I'm a duck owner I have an interest in learning all things ducks. Oddly, this book talks about duckbilled dinosaurs. That made me really happy. This book includes some nice (mostly black-and-white) images of the dinosaurs too. I can see they do look like ducks in someways.

Last year I read Jane Goodall and this book kind of reminded me of her book. I'm not really interested in science or science books, but when animals are involved, then I seem to be actually want to read science books.

Super interesting. I hope this guy gets to engineer a real Dino. The book has some fun range -from detailed descriptions of Montana's Paleontology history through the technicalities of gene splicing. If you like dinosaurs and are interested in the future of biotech and it's potential, this is a good book.
