Praise for THE LAST LOST WORLD Daughter-and-father historians of science pretty fully justify their profession in this brilliant explanation of the most recent geological epoch [ ] For science mavens of a philosophical bent, this may be the book of the year, a font of knowledge and, what s more and better, intellectual exercise. <b>Booklist</b> Written in clear, supple prose, this title will interest historians, anthropologists, and anyone fascinated by the Ice Ages, human evolution, and the history of science and culture. <b>Library Journal</b> Lasting from about 3 million to 10,000 years ago, the Pleistocene is both a geological epoch and an idea, write science historians Stephen Pyne (<i>Voyager: Exploration, Space, and the Third Great Age of Discovery</i>, 2011, etc.) and his daughter Lydia, who proceed to deliver a perceptive account of both. <b>Kirkus Reviews</b> [Pyne] and his daughter dig right into the subject of the tumultuous, fascinating Pleistocene and do [ ] a lively, bang-up job of it. <b>Open Letters Monthly</b>
