Book Description
Medicine, chemistry, physics and engineering stand poised to benefit within the next few years from the ingenuity of complex biological structures invented and perfected by nature over millions of years.
This book provides both researchers and engineers as well as students of all the natural sciences a vivid insight into the world of bioelectronics and nature's own nanotechnological treasure chamber.
Book Description
An accomplished young scientist solves one of the greatest mysteries of evolution: What caused the dramatic explosion of life half a billion years ago?
About 550 million years ago, there was literally an explosion of life forms, as all the major animal groups suddenly and dramatically appeared. Although several books have been written about this surprising event, known as the Cambrian explosion, none has explained why it occurred. Indeed, none was able to. Here, for the first time, Oxford zoologist Andrew Parker reveals his theory of this great flourishing of life. Parker's controversial but increasingly accepted"Light Switch Theory" holds that it was the development of vision in primitive animals that caused the explosion. Drawing on evidence not just from biology, but also from geology, physics, chemistry, history, and art, In the Blink of an Eye is the fascinating account of a young scientist's intellectual journey, and a celebration of the scientific method.

Enjoyable & informative, but with multiple flaws.......2007-10-01
Other reviewers have mentioned Andrew Parker's proclivity in 'In the Blink of an Eye' to digress, to present his thesis as more revolutionary & unique than it actually is, & to fall into a 'gee whiz' style from time to time, & I will merely second those critiques, while agreeing with previous reviewers that Parker's book is nevertheless an entertaining & surprisingly broadly informative read.
But my primary criticism of Parker's book is his failure to construct a solid logical argument for his thesis, which is that the evolution of vision was THE cause of the Cambrian Explosion ('CE'). Parker tends to zigzag through his chapters, & upon reaching the end, claim that he has formulated a logically-sequenced argument, which he rarely has.
Few paleontologists, I think, would disagree with the idea that the development of vision (as distinct from mere light sensitivity) gave an enormous acceleration to Early Cambrian evolutionary rates, but Parker wants more than mere primum inter pares for vision, he wants it to have sole credit for the Explosion. To quote one reviewer: "What happened in the explosion is that animals acquired armor, hard body parts, and a huge variety of different shapes. Parker explains that the shapes and armor came along because eyes came along."
Yes, that's precisely Parker's explanation, but his argument leaves a skeptical reader not entirely convinced. At one point, Parker states (paraphrasing) that one must separate the CE itself (i.e., the evolution of fossilizable hard parts made of calcite) from the Cause of the CE. Stating it doesn't necessarily make it so. Sometimes an events IS the same thing as its cause.
Parker spends considerable time making the case that trilobites were the first creatures to develop vision. By Parker's own, slightly buried, report, this first lens that made vision possible was a calcite lens. I.e., it was either literally or virtually a modified bit of calcite body armor. If a bit of modified armor came first & made vision possible, how can one claim that "...armor came along because eyes came along."?
I don't want to argue that the evolution of vision wasn't crucial, merely that it's more reasonable to view it as 'primum inter pares', 'first among equals'. There's just too many evolutions of 'firsts' happening in the CE: first calcite secretion by multiple phyla, first eyes with considerable degrees of vision in multiple phyla, and several new body plans. It's probably more realistic to view these all as giving important positive feedback to each other, instead of crediting one as being the sole source of all the changes.
On this account, I think Parker's book would have been improved by a consideration of how & why so many different phyla evolved both calcite body coverings & vision so nearly simultaneously. The problem, to the best of my knowledge, is that we're still pretty much stumped by this one. Perhaps it's a useful place in earth history to postulate the incorporation, by several phyla, of bacterial DNA coded for calcite secretion, a la Lynn Margulis.
It makes no sense to somehow imply that the evolution of vision by trilobites somehow produces the evolution of vision in trilobite prey species. Evolution doesn't work that way, though that's the impression Parker just sorta leaves hanging out there.
Parker, like Dawkins before him, cites Nilson & Pelger's theoretical calculations of the rapidity--in geological time terms--with which "eyespots" can evolve into camera-type eyes. Perhaps a fruitful field for Parker to consider than would have been why then did vision not evolve prior to the CE? 99+% of all animal lenses through geologic history have been made of organic materials rather than calcite. Why then did lenses not evolve in multicellular life prior to the evolution of calcite secretion & hence the first calcite lens?
But again, the final line here is that Parker's book is an enjoyable & worthwhile read, even if it ultimately fails to marshall a complete & compelling argument in support of its thesis.
Great ideas but too many digressions.......2007-07-31
In the blink of an eye splits the Cambrian Explosion into two pieces, the development of multicellular life (the "precambrian surge", which is mostly just dropped) and the evolution of "hard parts" as a result of the development of vision (which is the bulk of the book). The story does not flow well because of the frequent digressions, but there is a lot of support for his main conclusion. He mentions that the end of "snowball earth" comes a littel too soon before the Cambrian Explosion. At the same time he makes the point that 38 phyla were developed during this time and none since. I think evolving 38 phyla would take some time. I also think the snowball earth did not just go away quietly, it may have been several million years before the precambrian animals were able to dispurse across the seas to the point that they were detectible and primed for the explosion. The book is very up-to-date and worth reading, but ber prepared to listne ot too much autobiography and "and then I did..."
Fascinating content, terrible writing.......2006-04-23
The content of this book is simply fascinating. Not only does it present a plausible solution to the Cambrian enigma, it also provides a huge amount of information on the role of color and eyesight in nature. The only drawback is that the writing style is extremely clumsy and sometimes the logic is very difficult to follow. The author should have teamed up with a professional writer.
The eyes have it.......2006-03-09
What triggered the Cambrian Explosion?
Starting around 543 million years ago, there was a 10-million year period (give or take 5 million years) in which the number of phyla on this planet went from three to thirty-eight. After that, no new phyla appeared. Something dramatic happened during that time period, but why? There was also a major evolution of external body parts in all phyla at that time, but what caused all this?
There are some explanations that have been taken seriously for the Cambrian explosion, and Parker reviews a number of them. The first is that the Cambrian was just a great time for rapid evolution. But there is evidence from embryos of nonskeletised animals that indicates that the Cambrian was probably not a particularly hospitable time after all. The second group of explanations that Parker deals with attempt to cover not only the Cambrian explosion itself, but the Precambrian changes in internal body plans. But Parker wants to know what caused the explosion itself, and feels strongly that the Precambrian changes are not an integral part of this. The third explanation is that the physical environment changed significantly at the start of the Cambrian. That means changes in, say, oxygen, carbon dioxide, or phosphorus levels. But these levels changed at plenty of times, and the start of the Cambrian doesn't appear to be all that special. A fourth explanation is that shallow-water continental shelf areas increased at the start of the Cambrian. A fifth is that there was a "Snowball Earth" that ended just prior to the Cambrian. A sixth is that collagen was acquired by animals during the Cambrian. A seventh deals with the generation of new niches: perhaps the increased availability of free-swimming plants could create a new niche. An eighth deals not with niches, but with all feeding modes. And yes, one or more of these explanations may be pretty close. But they don't satisfy Parker, and he has an explanation that makes plenty of sense, namely that around 543 million years ago, there was a sudden development of sight among animals. That means eyes, and brains to interpret the light that reaches those eyes. By the way, one of the early species to acquire eyes may have been the box jellyfish, which has no brain! But the trilobites are the creatures that Parker dwells on: they originated at the start of the Cambrian, and they appear to have had eyes (and brains) at that time.
The book covers plenty about what eyes are, what different sorts of eyes there are, how eyes evolved, and what eyes are used for. As an example, rabbits have eyes on each side of their heads. A reason is that they spend plenty of energy to avoid getting eaten. That means they want as close to 360-degree vision as they can get, since they intend to run away at top speed towards safety if they see a predator (and keep running for their lives if the predator chases them). That is a cost-effective idea! On the other hand, foxes spend more of their energy chasing potential food. They don't need 360-degree vision for this, so they have eyes in front, where they can be used to provide depth perception. That lets them judge the distances to possible prey and saves them from costly futile chases.
It doesn't take much imagination to, um, see that the introduction of vision could lead to a huge evolutionary explosion, as species developed armor, camouflage, and more defenses against suddenly non-blind predators. So this is indeed an interesting hypothesis.
A critical issue is just how long it would take for working eyes to evolve from simple patches of light-sensitive cells (sandwiched between a transparent protective layer and a layer of dark pigment). But as the author explains, a paper by Dan-Eric Nilsson and Susanne Pelger shows that a few hundred thousand years should be ample time to accomplish all this. Vision could indeed have arisen in an evolutionary blink of an eye. And that may well have led to the Cambrian explosion.
At the end of the book, Parker considers possible triggers for the evolution of eyes, such as increases in the available light reaching the Earth's surface. I think these areas are worth pursuing as well.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I recommend it.
A great read but where is the bibliography?.......2006-02-07
Parker presents a very plausible theory that seems to explain the great increase of species in the Cambrian explosion. In fact, it is so well-presented (much like Darwin included overwhelming arguments and examples in Origin of Species) that you are tempted to repeat Huxley and say that it is so obvious, why didn't I think of that?
Like other reviewers, I cannot comprehend the absence of a bibliography. With one, I would have rated the book 5 stars.

Book Description
Alice never imagined she would end up like this, so anxious after hearing about the dangers of meteorites that she makes her children wear bike helmets in the wading pool. Her husband, David, has taught their four-year-old to list every animal represented in Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf. But the more they push their children, the more things there are to worry about. It seems no amount of gluten rationing or herbal teas can improve their children’s intellectual development, and as Alice’s eldest child looks set to fail her entrance exam for the exclusive private school on which her parents have pinned all their hopes, Alice decides to take matters into her own hands. With a baseball cap pulled low over her face, Alice shuffles into a hall of two hundred kids and takes the test in place of her daughter, her first examination in twenty years. With a comic eye for detail that has sent his books to the top of the British best-seller lists, May Contain Nuts is a funny, compelling, and provocative satire of the manic world of today’s overcompetitive, overprotective families.

A Humorous Must Read for the Ever Growing Number of Cotton Wool Kid Parents Out There.......2006-12-19
If you've ever overheard cotton wool kid parents talking to each other about how there fat little kids can't possibly walk or ride a bike to school because they might get abducted, or seen these parents in action first hand for yourself walking down the road with dog leads attached to their kids then you'll realise this book could really be a work of non fiction and that's what makes it even more brilliant.
In this book Alice and David are two of these paranoid middle class British parents, particularly the mother Alice. They force their daughter Molly and their other kids to undertake a rigorous schedule of activities, study and practice exams so they'll get into the right pre school, primary and high schools otherwise they'll have no possible chance of getting into the best universities and avoid being prostitutes, drug users and the like. They fear walking down to their local video store as those black kids in the hooded tops will obviously rob them or worse. Their group of friends aren't any different, reading the labels on food and not allowing their kids to eat anything that may contain traces of nuts just on the off chance their kids may be allergic. Even within these tailored activities such as a running race they force these kids to wear dog leads so they can protect them just in case that dog on the other side of the park happens to come over and kill their children.
These are the cotton wool kid parents, and they see nothing wrong with their behaviour. So the pressure is on for Molly to get into the snobby school Chelsea College but her parents soon come to realise there is a good chance she may not make the cut. They know they must take drastic action, they know Alice must be pretend to be Molly and take the test in her place.
May Contain Nuts is a great read, predictable outcome but the fun is in getting there as Alice starts to realise just how ridiculous her beliefs are.
plenty to laugh at.......2006-07-27
The first half of this book is downright hilarious, as O'Farrell deftly skewers our child-centric culture, and satirizes parents who will go to any length to ensure their child's safety and success. Unfortunately the second half is less satisfying: our heroine never really admits that what she did was flat-out wrong, and the ending rings a bit false. Even so, if you've ever been even the teeniest bit tempted to somehow work your kid's great test score into a conversation with other parents, you'll find plenty to laugh at. It's a quick read, fine summer fluff that may leave you examining your own behavior when you're done.
A Great Book for Teachers, Too!.......2006-04-06
I usually don't read satire, but as a new teacher this book was almost therapeutic in its attacks on obsessive middle-class mums (the British ones are not much different from the American ones). It's also a thoughtful novel about school choice: What's best for your child vs. What's best for you. May Contain Nuts even deals with status quo in terms of race and socio-economics.
Very funny and very reflective.
LOVED IT!.......2005-11-12
This book was so entertaining that I finished it in two days (an incredible feat considering I have two very young children). A satirical portrayal of modern parenting, but seriously reflects the lengths of what many elitist families would do to get their kids the "right" academic beginning. I particularly enjoyed this book because many of O'Farrell's characters actually live in my neighborhood. The ending was bit abrupt and unrealistically tidy (could a real Alice, who went through such lengths to get her daughter into a top independent school truly embrace the notion of her daughter being in a public school in just several months???), but it was a fun read nonetheless.

Very funny.......2005-12-28
Since three of the five reviews that Amazon currently features about this humor collection are written by its contributors, one might wonder if this compendium is a clunker, but that is most definitely not the case. In fact, this is a laugh-out-loud collection of great pieces, including illustrated gags as well as first-rate essays, commentary and satire.
I picked this up as part of a "book binge" following the recent Christmas holiday, which was unremarkable (thank God) but tiring, what with all of the food preparation, obligatory family gigs and tiresome office parties. It was definitely time for some laughs to lighten my mood and get me prepped for the "back to business" days ahead. May Contain Nuts did just the trick. It had me laughing on the subway, right along with the motley crew of screaming kids, ranting preachers, bad musicians and other lunatics that haunt the place. And, unlike other pastimes we could all name, this book offers a clean and relatively safe way to blow off some steam, the only danger being the potential to die laughing.
I highly recommend this collection and the other entries in the Mirth of a Nation series.
Best Bathroom Reading Ever!.......2005-04-29
I was thrilled to be a contributor to this great humor collection. But I was even more excited to read the whole darn book. With a wide range of topics and styles, "May Contain Nuts" is the perfect addition to anyone's bathroom reading shelf. And it even has some light satire directed at George W. Bush including my piece "And What's with That Round Ball?" If you enjoy that one, check out my new book "My Friend W" for more of the same.
Just Buy It!!!.......2005-03-23
I flipped though it and bought it on a whim. It is the best thing I have ever done for myself. This book is amazing!!! It's not just wonderful because it is a great pick-me-up... but it's also brilliant in the writing. Many of the things could be performance pieces or hit a wide audiance. Just read it you won't go wrong! Highly recommended
An Unbiased Reviewer Speaks from His Gut .......2004-10-19
Buy this book! Now! Don't wait another moment. I'm not just saying that because I have a tiny humor piece in this book. I'm not just saying that because I appear naked on pages 228-229. I'm not just saying that because John Warner's faux New York Times Book Section review of his first date is the funniest thing ever written. I'm saying that because I'm hungry. Seriously, I'm starving, man. Writers make jack-squat. For every book sold, I get a penny. If a thousand sell, that's $10 to Domino's and a pizza to me. Help a dude out. Buy this book!

Hello, readers! Under increasing pressure to be all things to all people, this new volume of Mirth of a Nation provides customized tables of contents so that each reader may hone in on those pieces most likely to suit his or her individual needs. One example is TV Guidance: We all know that, in their spare time, readers watch television. What you might not know, is that many writers in May Contain Nuts, in their spare time, write for television. In an effort to compete in the marketplace where everything is vying for your attention and dollars, the book provides a sort of TV Guide to its contents (albeit, only one short day's "viewing," as it were, of the 460 pages). Readers can now multitask, spending the "prime time" of our lives reading/watching a book/the television. Or, you may think of this as our friends here at amazon.com do so nicely, "if you liked [fill-in], then you'll like [fill-in]"). In other words, if you enjoyed this television program, surely you'll enjoy another piece of writing in this book by its creative genius or part-time staff writer.
You don't even need to check your local listings for times. An asterisk denotes stardom and the fact that the May Contain Nuts contributor is acting in, rather than writing for, a given program.

Otis Skinner's Funniest Bits.......2005-04-11
This is the book where Cornelia Otis Skinner gets interviewed by Dr. Kinsey and she's too embarrassed to mention it to anyone, but everyone hears about it anyhow. When pressed to divulge what he asked her, she responds acerbically, "If you're crazy enough to ask me that, you must think I'm crazy enough to tell you what I answered him!"
This is also the book in which hilariously she describes in excruciatingly intense detail the experience of having to act in a play for charity in which all the (100 % Caucasian) actors are supposed to play Chinese courtesans of the Ming Dynasty, and the author in attendance is upset when the actors spontaneously cut into her five and a half hour opus.
Will there ever be another author as funny as Cornelia Otis Skinner? When I was a boy, my friends and I used to wait for her car to show up on the main street of the summer resort town she visited from time to time and in which we lived year around. We delighted to see her show up, for she gave out generous tips to any boy who would carry packages from the shops back to her car. Listening to her talk you thought you had been transported back to an ancient world of humorous zaniness. She was the best, and this book is one of her very finest.
Bring it back to print someone, and retain the period illustrations by the oh so talented artist who was known solely as "Alajalov."

Book Description
Algernon Brickwood, successful publisher and proud father, is known to enjoy a spot of lunch or two. And it is over one such lunch that Teddy, his beloved son, drops his bombshell. He has been sent down from Oxford - and not only that, but he's also broken off his engagement to Abigail Fitzhammond. Now Algernon can live without the Oxford connection, but certainly not the family's impending union with the lovely, and rather rich, Abigail. As he determines to put a stop to his son's pig-headedness, Richard Gordon takes him, Teddy and Abigail on a uproarious romp through love, money and a taste for high living
