Very, very Canadian in all ways. Such an entertaining read - a great escape but also a confirmation of life's unexpected, unanticipated, change in an instant capacity. In this book I would argue it is for the better. It is highly readable by any citizen. The content, the message, if any, and there is one, beckons engagement beyond a shallow read to interact perhaps with a witty, value critical, subtle excavation of morality. A tug of war is ragged of what is right in the short or longer term for immediate or greater gains. Oh tis life you say but it is also a nations life drilled down to the region and the personal, therefore the private and the personal, the public and the shared. Picking up the sequal asap which I suspect takes us deeper into the meadow of muffins in politics.

This was nowhere near as enjoyable as Gravity's Rainbow or The Crying of Lot 49, but still had some parts worth reading. I just couldn't tell you what they were. Another 700+ page wild goose chase that never concludes... if you're into that sorta thing, you'll love this.

I love beach reads, and this definitely takes the cake. Cute story, easy read. I recommend!

I liked this a lot when I read it, but Byatt's obsession with epistemology and academic bickering seems petty and uninteresting in retrospect. I'm not sure I'd want to reread it.

The original true crime story. Very, very sad to read, but a rivating work. What a GREAT writer.

Fictional version of a possible history of Mary - I have no doubt that there are writings behind the assumptions but it was hard to care about this character and the tragedies she faces in her life.

This book was published in 2004 and I would love to see it updated! Two authors collaborated: Ray Kurzwell, PhD (futuristic thinker) and Terry Grossman, M.D. Anti-Aging specialist and expert in Longevity Medicine. Little side note that Ray Kurzwell designed the message typewriter wheels the govn't used... :-) The book uses three bridges to describe content. The First Bridge is the authors' Longevity Program. This has the current options available, but spruced up. Things we already have access to. The Second Bridge is the upcoming biotechnology that was being tested or experimented on when the book was written. This includes recombinant technology which is deploying gene technology in species we consume. The Third Bridge is looking far into the future using nanotechnology and artificial intelligence. Replacing organs like Dr. Oz has talked about on Oprah! The majority of the information in Fantastic Voyage pertains to Bridge One. Bridge One goes into great detail on ways to take maximum advantage of the most advanced diagnostic testing and preventative methods so a person can get to Bridges Two and Three. I have to say that some of the info in Bridge Three I disliked. It was just too far fetched. The authors' believe we can live to be 5,000 years old using Bridge Three technology--comfortably. The authors' talk about food and water. Cancer. Cell mutation. The importance of increasing our alkalinity. Problems with sugar (the white death). Food and protein. Inflammation. The impact our toxic environment has on us. * Sleeping with an electric blanket is not healthy due to the currents that we expose to our bodies. Similar to talking on a cell phone, so be aware. Food pollution and how due to over farming and pesticides our farm products no longer have the medicinal value they had in the past. The importance of taking supplements! Chapter 21 on Aggressive Supplementation breaks down each necessary vitamin, mineral and two essential fatty acids (EFAs). The importance of taking our ACES: Vitamins A, C, E and the mineral selenium. Other important vitamins are the B (2,3,6) and coenzyme Q10 as well as a grapeseed extract (proanthocyanidins)--a powerful antioxidant. Fantastic Voyage talks about the dangers of taking synthetic hormones and the benefits of using bio-identical hormones for women and men. There are many recommended drugs that the authors' refer to. In Bridge Two they mention drugs still being tested and in the number phase as a name. However, they mention the importance of taking vitamins and supplements BEFORE reaching for a popular drug. Discussion on "free radicals" further explained what Dr. Oz has been saying on Oprah. Tells exactly how antioxidants repair us. Fascinating. (page 313) The vitamins, minerals and EFAs are broken down and recommended dosage for optimal health is provided in easy to read format. There are places that went right over my head with a lot of detail and graphs on topics related to the body, cells, cancers, mutations, etc. Whew! For the most part, I was able to follow the authors' as they told their individual health stories, explained how heart disease has been mistreated, talked about good and bad LDL and HDL in a way that I understood what they were saying. Excellent book!

Again, this book has it all: amazing characters, wonderful plot, exotic venue, beautifully understated writing, powerful challenges facing each of the family members. This book will always connect me with our friend, dear Leslie, a founding member of our book group who died in 2007.

Thoreau said, "this only is reading, in a high sense, not that which lulls us as a luxury and suffers the nobler faculties to sleep the while, but what we have to stand on tip-toe to read and devote our most alert and wakeful hours to." Faulkner must have really taken this to heart. My reading of "As I lay Dying" went marginally better than my attempt at The Sound and The Fury, but not by much. I still didn't finish, but I enjoyed it to some extent. Just not enough to keep reading.
