The Darwinian Tourist: Viewing the World through Evolutionary Eyes

Biologist Wills takes us on a series of adventures that demonstrate how ecology and evolution have interacted to create the world we live in. Some of these adventures, like his SCUBA dives in the incredibly diverse Lembeh Strait in Indonesia, or his encounter with a wild wolf cub in western Mongolia, could perhaps be experienced by any reasonably intrepid traveller. Others, like his experience of being hammered by a severe earthquake off the island of Yap while filming manta rays sixty feet under the ocean's surface, stand far outside the ordinary.
