The Flight of the Iguana: A Sidelong View of Science and Nature

The Flight of the Iguana: A Sidelong View of Science and Nature

by David Quammen

  • NATURAL HISTORY
  • 1998
  • PAPER
  • 320 PAGES

A marvelous, witty collection of essays. Even keen naturalists will be thrilled that Quammen gets his facts straight. His essay on a visit to the Galapagos is terrific, and the whole book sheds light on how evolution works.  (NAT16, $16.00)
