Not subtle but eye-opening nevertheless, Michael D'Orso's book focuses on the damage and challenges of people in the Galapagos as seen though the knowledgeable eyes of, mostly, long-term expat residents like Jack Nelson and Godfrey Merlen. Galapagos needs a book about pressures on the marine reserve and social problems in the islands; too bad this one is so sensational and narrow in its outlook. It's sure to cause a storm among the Ecuadorians who care about the Galapagos (and do some damage to the fragile relations in Puerto Ayora).  (GPS60, $13.95)
