Been meaning to ask you what you think of Dawkins' The Ancestor's Tale. Leading a discussion group on it next semester for a thing.

The Ancestor's Tale was one of the most important popular science evolutionary biology book I've read. I think it is my favourite Dawkins book. Mostly I enjoyed it because it was such a brilliant idea to explain evolution in the narrative structure that he did. It's a great way to understand speciation and common ancestry.

Excellent! Looking forward to it.
