Catching up on reviews so... Thanks to NetGalley and PublicAffairs for access to this book in exchange for my honest review.

Although I enjoyed this I don't know how approachable it is for the general public. It reminded me of books I read in anthropology courses in college, which doesn't mean it is bad - just maybe not exactly something that the average person would read and/or enjoy. It is informative, educational, and enlightening but if you're looking for some tips for what we can take from the past to use now this isn't exactly what you'll get from this book and there are a lot of books out there that will give you tips if that's what you want.

This book was informative and would be helpful for someone who doesn't know the nature of the climate on this planet. It really shows how the human species is resilient but that we still need to plan ahead for the changes that are coming.

An informative and fascinating read about a somewhat overwhelming subject, and our history in dealing with the unpredictable aspects of it.
