The Ancestor's Tale: A Pilgrimage to the Dawn of Evolution
Comments and mentions from HN threads:
Ask HN: Books that altered your view of reality
mm-typer: This book starts at human-bonobo-chimpanzee split and goes backward into a LOT of evolutionary history, including scientific discoveries and different branches of the evolutionary tree.
Ask HN: What books have most influenced the way you see the world?
meri_dian: None of his militant atheism. Just a brilliant and engaging work on evolutionary biology.
