The Genetic Gods: Evolution and Belief in Human Affairs

Avise (genetics, Univ. of Georgia) explains thoroughly how evolution operates on a genetic level. His goal is to show that humans can look to this information as a way to answer fundamental questions of life instead of looking to traditional religious beliefs. Unfortunately, what could have been a fascinating and provocative book for informed lay readers turns out to be a rather average academic tome, written in a dense, scholarly style that is sometimes hard to get through. Although Avise includes some very interesting discussions of ethical concerns related to genetic issues, his book is recommended only for academic collections and some larger public libraries. – Eric D.
