Natural History and science books on the shelf

This is a fairly popular area in the bookshop particularly during spring and early summer for natural history books.

On the whole science related books tend to be relatively expensive to buy new so considerable savings can be made by buying them secondhand.

As a general bookseller I don’t stock textbooks mostly they do not lend themselves to secondhand, as they are usually out of date or no longer used on a local course by the time people come to sell them to me.

However if you get a sudden urge for a book about the poisonous snakes of Australia or land snails I may be able to help.

    Sorry to change subject but this is very important!

    Do you think that Steve Ladyman MP should resign from his position as a local president of the Royal British Legion (page 35 Kent On Sunday- view online) after voting against the rights of the Gurkhas ?

    Its a bit like a vicar voting against the choir!

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
