Flights of Fancy by Yana Ho

The last chapter of climbing mountain probable is about figs and fig wasps. I think it's an incredibly complicated relationship between figs and their polenaters, which are tiny little wasps. And if you ask me to explain it now, i will absolutely refuse, because it's the most complicated thing i've ever understood. This book is, again, took mat the two cultures. Yana ho who a craved the illustrations. It's a wonderful mix of a lot of ideas about natural selection, about our understanding of evolution,. but also beautiful, sometimes mythic images, and then sometimes creatures.
