Book Overview
Science fiction films, from the original Frankenstein and The Fly to Blade Runner and The Terminator , traditionally have been filled with aliens, spaceships, androids, cyborgs, and all sorts of robotic creatures along with their various creators.

What is the relationship of mad scientist to subject, of human to android, of creature to creator?...

Now I can answer my son's questions!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
My two boys often ask questions such as "What kind of bird is that?" or "where would we find a vole?" I purchased this book right before two road trips and we made great use of it. My sons were able to differentiate between kinds of birds and bugs while camping in British Columbia. Great book, I plan to build a collection of Peterson's First Guides. Started with this and the caterpillar/butterfly book.
*FIRST* guide!

The guide says right on it, for BEGINNING naturalists. Not to be confused with a comprehensive, highly detailed, professional field guide. It's SUPPOSED to be for kids!Sheeesh.
