I have spent most of today finishing up Jane Davidson's A History of Paleontology Illustration (a review of which I intend on will writing up shortly), but I took a quick break to blow a few bucks at the Cranbury Bookworm. Here's what I came home with;
Evolution for John Doe - Henshaw Ward (1925)
African Exodus - Christopher Stringer & Robin McKie (1996)
Piltdown - Frank Spencer (1990)
Annie's Box - Randal Keynes (2001)
Life - Richard Fortey (1997)
I'm not letting myself start any of them until I have written the review of Davidson's book, however, and by that time I might put some more time in on my own book. (A complete list of updates on the book project can be found here, in the archives.)
