I love this book because it appeals to the evolutionary biology fan in me, as is evident in my book.

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 The most eggstraordinary books about eggs.
