reviewed Culture, Technology, And The Creation Of America's National Parks on April 02, 2013 Culture
I first got this book when I was 12, or so, from an aunt who was convinced I would grow up to be a scientist.
I didn't become a scientist -- no surprise there, really -- but this book became a companion. There was a two- or three-year period where I read at least a story a night, re-reading some dozens of times.
I'd forgotten about this book, and what it meant to me, until I settled in to Goodreads. Now, I can't deny that it's had a huge influence on my tastes.
The funny thing is, I rarely read Science Fiction, these days.
I have to find a good, used copy now. I need this book back on my shelf :)
