Description
A Scottish gentleman farmer, Hutton’s observations on his small tract of land led him to a theory that directly contradicted biblical claims that the Earth was only 6,000 years old. This expertly crafted narrative tells the story not only of Hutton, but also of Scotland and the Scottish Enlightenment, including many of the greatest thinkers of the age, such as David Hume and Adam Smith.

Summary: "not enough"
This book does not convince me of its theses (back cover): Hutton "proved" that our planet is millions of years old and Hutton's story was "lost" because his writing style was unreadable. I don't dispute these points, I merely state that this book does not prove its case to me. Where Hutton's writings are quoted in the book, they are simple diary-type entries. The author doesn't actually present and diagnose Hutton's writings. Even if Hutton's writings weren't clear, he attended scientific meetings; he had ample opportunity to clarify his ideas to colleagues. This book does not convince me why it was left to Charles Lyell to explain Hutton. Also, only radiocarbon dating "proves" the long age of the earth. While Hutton argued for millions of years, the author does not convince me that Hutton's arguments were of the great importance that they were. This book might be fine for social historians but it is weak for geologists.
Note: See the hardcover edition for another spectrum of reviews. For some reason, they are not mixed together.

Summary: "The Man Who Found Time"
I have spent most of the afternoon and evening reading "The Man Who Found Time." I simply could not put it down. The writing/research skills and fount of knowledge reflected in this exceptional book are greatly admired -- and maybe a little envied -- by this retired newspaperman.

Summary: "Serviceable prose, but plodding"
Not the most exciting bio-science book, but okay. I finished it, but it lacked drama. Arguably, it represented the way scientific investigation often is--slow and somewhat tedious--but I'm sure the protagonist found his discoveries quite exhilarating each day; it's up to the writer to capture that. On the plus side, the painstaking depiction of the Edinburgh milieu--which occupied perhaps 3/4 of the book--was helpful in understanding the cultural background of the time.
