A good read for anyone interested in evolutionary biology at all. It was really fun to read until I got to the micro-biology sections. They felt very repetitive and drawn out to me

Excellent thesis book on evolutionary biology, investigating whether evolution is deterministic. As rate it almost as high as "The beak of the finch".

Crammed with data, along with an excellent exploration of the last 30 years of research up to 2014. Highly recommended to anyone with a factual interest in recent evolutionary biology.
