The Beak of the Finch : A Story of Evolution in Our Time
Jonathan Weiner
On the Galapagos Islands Charles Darwin gave his first hint at his
theory of natural selection, writing about the finches he studied there.
In Darwin's time there was no proof of this theoretical mechanism for evolution.
Indeed it would have been thought absurd to imagine observing it actually
happen; the process was thought to take geological time spans. Weiner,
an outstanding science journalist, details research done in the last 20
years that proves otherwise. Biologists Peter and Rosemary Grant have documented
the evolution of Darwin's Galapagos finches, demonstrating that it is neither
rare nor slow, but can be watched by the hour. Weiner's superb account
reads like a thriller and won the1995 Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction. Amazon.com

A man who dares to waste an hour of time has not discovered
the value of life.
- Charles Darwin
A mathematician is a blind man in a dark room looking
for a black cat which isn't there.
- Charles Darwin
Animals, whom we have made our slaves, we do not like
to consider our equal.
- Charles Darwin
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we
should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no
good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
