From Library Journal:
This is the author's second autobiographical volume and begins in 1946 where From Apes to Warlords ( LJ 3/15/78), now out of print, left off. Lord Zuckerman's career was an interweaving of three distinct areas: chairman of the anatomy department at Birmingham University, embattled director of the London Zoo, and Chief Science Advisor to the British government. The book is enlivened with anecdotes and peopled with the famous, from presidents to royalty, with whom Zuckerman was sometimes at odds. At the interface between politics and science, Zuckerman presents a well-documented account of the waste, poor planning, and flawed logic of international nuclear policies, although the latter is better argued in his earlier book, Nuclear Illusion and Reality ( LJ 4/1/82). Recommended for academic and general collections.
