Ice Tomb Second Edition

by Deborah Jackson

It took me a few chapters to get into this book, perhaps because so many characters in so many different locations were thrown at me so quickly that I found it difficult to keep track of them.  But once I got past that, the plot began to advance and I became caught up in it.

Dr. Erica Daniels, a volcanologist, had her heart set on exploring the lunar landscape but was cheated out of the opportunity by her ruthless ex-lover and is given an assignment in Antarctica, instead.  She's tasked with investigating an anomaly that has scientists puzzled.  To research the curious hotspot, she must join forces with an unscrupulous British archeologist and a brilliant Russian physicist, the last survivor of his remote outpost.

Peeve:  Everyone's forehead wrinkles, creases, and furrows when they're thinking, and the furrows usually rise right into their caps.  I've never seen anything like that in real life, and the repetitiveness becomes annoying.

Praise:  The author obviously has done her research.  I recently watched a documentary about life at McMurdo Station and Jackson is spot-on with her descriptions.

The book is interesting, well-written and definitely worth a read.

Läheisyyttä läheisyyttä läheisyyttä <3

Oi kun mua niin korpee, kun joidenkin ihmisten kommenteista paistaa läpi nykyaikainen ajatus, että lähes vastasyntyneen vauvan täytyy jo alkaa itsenäistyä, eikä sille saa antaa liikaa. Erityisesti harmittaa neuvolantädin jo useaan toistunut kommentti paljon rintaa imevästä lapsestamme: "Älä anna sen pitää sua tuttina." Onko täti siis sitä mieltä, että halutessaan viettää paljon aikaa rinnalla kuusiviikkoinen vauva manipuloi ja käyttää äitiä hyväkseen? Miksi meillä pelätään, että lapsi voi saada liikaa läheisyyttä?

Tämän kiukun laannuttamiseksi olen löytänyt omien ajatusteni tueksi Searsin pariskunnan The Fussy Baby Bookin. En tiedä onko oma poikamme kirjan kuvaama suuritarpeinen lapsi, sen aika näyttää, mutta hyviä ajatuksia ja vinkkejä kirjasta löytyy ihan jokaiselle vanhemmalle. Laitan kirjasta lisää paremmalla ajalla. Ehkä jokaisen meidän lapsi on suuritarpeinen omien vanhempien sylin ja läheisyyden tarpeen - ja hyvä niin! <3

Olen tilannnut tämän pariskunnan toisenkin teoksen Kiintymysvanhemmuuden kirja sekä Deborah Jacksonin Three in a Bed, joka kertoo perhepedistä, mutta myös paljon muusta kasvatukseen liittyvästä. Tästä kirjasta löytyy hyvä juttu suomeksi babyidean sivuilla, kannattaa lukea, vaikka ei kirjaa jaksaisi hankkia.

Läheisyys kunniaan!
