80 years ago today, the late #RichardFortey was born. Read all about him in A Curious Boy, a bewitching memoir that tells of his early years and shows the power of curiosity in shaping his life.

I only just found out that #RichardFortey has died via the Economist podcast. I enjoyed his books and TV programmes.

Gutted to read that palaeontologist #RichardFortey has passed away. I really enjoyed both his book Trilobite! and his memoir and have his recent book on fungi lined up. He will be sorely missed.
