The Ancestor's Tale | Richard Dawkins

In The Ancestor’s Tale, Dawkins offers a masterwork: an exhilarating reverse tour through evolution, from present-day humans back to the microbial beginnings of life four billion years ago. Throughout the journey, the author sheds light on topics such as speciation, sexual selection, and extinction.

The Ancestor’s Tale is at once an essential education in evolutionary theory and a riveting read.
