    I would love to take a chance at the giveaway. I was recommended to read that book, but have not gotten around to it. I also recommend reading "Guns, Germs, and Steel". It's a fun book that goes fast if you get into that sort of stuff.

    I was recommended the book by a college professor because it talks so much about anthropology, the major I want to study, next year, in college.

    Thanks

    Have enough trouble reading 'fast reads' image....but if I can, I'd like to be in your give-away, maybe in my 2 hour commute to work I can plug away at it.

    Thanks so much Chris.
    Will make fasinating reading on the daily train commute.
    At 4 hours a day, this shouldn't take long to finish.
