Evolutionary Biology
Richard Dawkins: How a Scientist Changed the Way We
Think is coming out in paperback (March) and anyone not
reading it in hardback should use this opportunity to take a
closer look at the man himself. The equally eminent James
Lovelock is also into paperback (February) with Revenge of
Gaia, a book sure to stir debate. Or discover a different
British landscape and the people who lived in it 700,000 years
ago with Chris Stringer's Homo Britannicus.
