 | Avise (genetics, Univ. of Georgia) explains thoroughly how evolution
operates on a genetic level. His goal is to show that humans can look
to this information as a way to answer fundamental questions of life
instead of looking to traditional religious beliefs. Unfortunately,
what could have been a fascinating and provocative book for informed
lay readers turns out to be a rather average academic tome, written in
a dense, scholarly style that is sometimes hard to get through.
Although Avise includes some very interesting discussions of ethical
concerns related to genetic issues, his book is recommended only for
academic collections and some larger public libraries. ??“ Eric D.
