The Red Queen
This was an excellent book. It looks at why we reproduce sexually. Honestly, sexual reproduction is not a very effecient way to reproduce, so why did we evolve that way? I didn't really come away from this book with any definite answers; however, I found a whole new set of questions and theories that I didn't know existed. The writer, Matt Ridley, does an excellent job of keeping what could be very complex and dry material entertaining and understandable. Definitely a must read for genetics or nature nuts. :)
