Evolution:. The Triumph of An Idea.jpg
I wrote this book as a companion volume for a 2001 PBS television series. In 2006, it was reissued with a new introduction. It's a both a history and an introduction to evolution. I investigate the rise of complex life, the role of mass extinctions, the evolution of sex, the arms race between parasites and their hosts, and lots of other stuff. Scientific American called it "as fine a book as one will find on this subject." Amazon page.
