As I was searching to try to buy this book, I came across some interesting information. This book won an award, the Turner Tomorrow Fellowship Award. This award is for authors whose fiction book helps produce solutions to global problems. Boy, I was quite surprised. We should have a very interesting class next week as we discuss this book. I am curious as to what Dr. Turner will have to say about it. I also feel as if I'm missing parts of the story.

I find this book to be hard to follow and understand. I am not finished with the book yet but find myself going back to review what has already been discussed. I find myself questioning what I have always thought of as right or normal.

There have been some interesting ideas, but I too feel as if I am missing some very important information. The author kind of jumps around from topic to topic in the book. I found it sort of confusing to follow.

I'm with you girls. I'm stuck. I'm having a very difficult time sticking to the story and understanding. However, I'm also one who cannot think beyond...
