In Brin's universe there's lots of intelligent races in the universe, but none of them (maybe except humans) have evolved into intelligens, they have been uplifted by parent races, who them selves have been uplifted (and so on and so on as long as anybody can remember). Luckily the rest of the book is so interesting that the dolphin crap is easily ignored, esp. As I don't want to bore you with my opinions on this subject I've moved my writing on it somewhere else. I'm not sure why, but I think its because I really loath the kind of people who can drone on and on about how intelligent and beautiful dolphins are. Sorry, but intelligent dolphins not my cup of tea. SR has its good sides even if parts of it make me kind of sick.


Startide Rising is a science fiction novel by the acclaimed author David Brin.įinally I have some luck with a Brin book.
