David Suzuki is an internationally renowned geneticist and environmentalist and a recipient of UNESCO’s Kalinga Prize for the Popularization of Science and the 2009 Right Livelihood Award. Host of the longrunning CBC television program The Nature of Things, he is also the author of more than fifty books.
In writing about himself, Suzuki writes about the world. —Quill & Quire
(2006-05-01)To read this new memoir is to see more deeply into a familiar face. You get the sense of meeting the real Suzuki for the first time . . . He is a natural storyteller, and every episode, effectively self-contained, contributes to the mosaic that is his life and work . . . There's a saying in the environmental movement, an inprecation to 'Leave only footprints, and take only memories.' Suzuki has left giant footprints, and his memories are a palpable legacy. —Vancouver Sun
(2006-05-06)Considered a sage by many -- and a crank by more than a few -- Suzuki is an undeniable force and a master at using his celebrity to sway public opinion. Love him or hate him, when he speaks, Canada listens. —Financial Post
(2007-04-01)A touching, insightful book . . . In the end, what comes across in this book is Suzuki's passion, leavened with dry humour and a somewhat surprising tendency to poke fun at his own foibles. —The Gazette
(2007-05-20)The Autobiography reads like a personal road trip with family and work, but it also affirms Canadian values . . . [Suzuki's] writing style is congenial, forging career with charisma in a unique blend of hubris, humility and intellect. —BC Studies
(2007-08-26)A candid yet contemplative account . . . Suzuki's unbridled spirit shines throughout effervescent, behind-the-scenes tales of his perceptive and prescient lifelong crusade for responsible living. —Booklist
(2007-10-15)It's easy, while reading this book, to hear it narrated in your mind by the calm voice of the author . . . Never shying away from honest self-assessment, this is a genuinely illuminating glimpse of the man who was floored to be voted fifth in the CBC's 'Greatest Canadian' contest. Worth reading. —Harrowsmith's Truly Canadian Almanac
