At least the title is good...,

This review is from: Galileo and the Dolphins: Amazing but True Stories from Science (Hardcover)
As a person who enjoys a good scientific history (nerd alert), I was very disappointed in Galileo and the Dolphins. The writing is poor and the topics treated in a superficial and sensationalistic fashion. For very good books in this genre I would suggest Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything or The Know-It-All... by A. J. Jacobs.

Entertaining, but a light read.,

This review is from: Galileo and the Dolphins: Amazing but True Stories from Science (Hardcover)
I picked out this book as one that might be fun for reading at the beach. It's easy to pick up (a series of very short essays) and unfortunately, equally easy to put down. I would categorize it as scientific mind candy
