Bringing together pro mising new voices and prize-winning favorites, this collection is a delight for any fan of popular science (Publishers Weekly).

There;s not a weak piece in the bunch.the collection is a joy to read and one to savor. - Publis hers Weekly - - From the Publisher With 26 essays collected from 15 publicatio ns, New Yorker contributor Kolbert (Field Notes from a Catastrophe) has pulled t ogether a magnificent display of writing. There's not a weak piece in the bunch. Kolbert's choices provide a sense of major themes in science today, with five p ieces focused on evolution and seven on environmental topics. As Kolbert notes, Darwin's ideas seem ever more central to our culture, even as their implications continue to challenge us.

Other entries show what might have been prior to the Big Ban g, the use of virtual reality games to quell post-traumatic stress disorder in I raqi War veterans and much more. The collection is a joy to read and one to savo r. (Oct. 8) - Publishers Weekly.…
