Why read it?
1 author picked Infinite Life as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this book because it appeals to the evolutionary biology fan in me, as is evident in my book.
Howard traces the history of eggs from ancient single-celled organisms to dinosaurs to the emergence of mammals. He explores how eggs adapted to countless environments and how these adaptations shaped biodiversity.
It’s a deeply engaging work of nonfiction from an enthusiastic author who shows that understanding the egg is fundamental to understanding life itself.
From Victoria's list on eggstraordinary books about eggs.
