Helpful Score: 1

This book is a great explanation of evolution, that anyone could read and gain some knowledge from. Carroll gives explanations of the fascinating adaptations that randomly occurred in many species. From primate color vision to antifreeze producing fish, each one is intriguing.

Carroll moves on to explain why people often disbelieve science and most of all, evolution. He then gives a sobering account of the status of the world's fisheries and describes histories newest mass-extinction, the one we're in the process of causing.

Anyone with an interest in nature should read this book!
