However, it seems quite obvious to me that quite a few of them have never actually read a biology book.

I certainly do not pretend to expert knowledge in biology, but I am an enthusiast who tries hard to learn all the biology I can;
as I do with the science of astronomy, I enjoy the beauty and intricacy and the very complex problems of biological science.

Best regards

Robert,as I said further back,How do you know Brian Cox has not studied some Biology.
Carlo Sagen Wrote books which contained masses of Biology, he was not just an Astronomer.

Have you or any of the detractors of Brian Cox picked up any obvious faults in his presentations
Please let us know
Cheers
BTW I have never read a Biology text book,I am not that clever to understand it all,
So when I get people like Brian Cox and Carl Sagen explaining it in layman's terms I can get some sort of understanding.
