The Beak of the Finch: A Story of Evolution in Our Time by Jonathan Weiner

5.0

A fascinating and extraordinarily readable account of how evolution went from an abstract concept to an observable process. Having just been to the Galapagos I enjoyed the discussion of the finches, but the book also moves on to discuss how insects and viruses evolve and how that impacts our daily life.
