The beak of the finch

Book • 1994
The Beak of the Finch is a compelling narrative about evolutionary biology, focusing on the work of Peter and Rosemary Grant, who spent decades studying the Galapagos finches.

The book vividly illustrates how natural selection operates in real-time, challenging traditional views of evolution as a slow process.

Weiner's work not only honors Darwin's legacy but also highlights the dynamic nature of evolution in various ecosystems.
