And there are people who suspect your book might be right, no offence to Neill Armstrong. What disturbed me about that book I referred to was that it contained a high concentration of information that had somehow escaped more elitist science books. For example, I never knew Tobacco Plants were carnivorous, and I've been finding dead insects all over the ones growing in my garden for years, but I'd simply put their deaths down to nicotine poisoning due to their attempting to devour the plants. None of the more scientific tomes at my disposal contains this important piece of information, not even the Royal Horticultural Society A-Z Encyclopedia of Garden Plants!It goes to show how easily information can be lost.
