desertcart.com: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland Decoded: The Full Text of Lewis Carroll's Novel with its Many Hidden Meanings Revealed: 9780385682268: Day, David: Books Review: Wonderful Wonderland Book - As an avid Alice in Wonderland fan, I have many Alice-related books, and this is one of the best that I have ever seen. Not only is the Lewis Carroll text presented in full, but the commentary and detailed analysis by David Day is placed next to and around the material to which it refers. The illustrations include original works by Carroll, John Tenniel, and many others, as well as photographs of the people who inspired Carroll, the places he visited, charts and graphs detailing Day's analysis, and fine art of the allusions in the text. David Day's insights and commentary are incredible as is the amount of research that he has conducted into the lives and work of Carol's contemporaries and the parts that they play in his book. His explanations are clear, organized, and academic; his sentence structure is swoon-worthy. Review: Thank you David Day for all your hard work - What an adventure, Thank you David Day for all your hard work - I first heard your interview on Australian radio and said I must get that book. Many of us these days lack a REAL education (classical that is) and need this insight to fill in the blanks. Wonderful, Amazing!

A Must for amy Alice fan
This is an exceptionally beautiful book. Martin Gardener's `The Annotated Alice' discusses the mathematics, but this book does much more. This is a must for any Alice fan.

Great info on a time honored story
Great info on a time honored story. VERY detailed and gets bogged down with intricate details (especially concerning math explanations) but totally necessary in the big picture to really explain the full Alice story. A seemingly simple and silly story broken down into very complex ideas. Great for the person that LOVES details and a touch of "why they did that"
