Book Review: Mammal in the Mirror

So I read this for book club last month, and as much as I hate to say it, it was pretty awful. It sort of missed the mark on being not technical enough for those who have a basic understand of human biology, and too technical for the layperson with no background. It read like a review sections in a high school biology book. The most interesting chapters were at the end and they barely touched at all on the theories about what really makes us human (which from reading the inside cover of the book, appears to be the main theme). It wasn't the worst book I ever read, but it's pretty low on my list.
