Feels great to have contributed, even in some small measure, to the cover of a book that has been receiving such great reviews. Glad to see the font and the theme have been modernized. On my Amazon wishlist.

Textbook, Nextbook, Whatever.
I tripped over Carl’s “Evolution: The Triumph of an Idea” and have followed his work ever since. I have no idea what that book cost me, and care not what this will cost – it’s a “must have” from a great communicator.
