Darwin's Ghost by Prof. Steve Jones f University College London is a masterful presentation of Darwin's original evolutionary work, but brought up to date. Jones wrote it with the image of Darwin watching over his shoulder and annotating The Origin to conform with all we've learned about "descent with modification" in the intervening 140 years. Jones, however, is not quite true to the original--the book is streamlined and far more readable than the weighty original tome.

A must read for any science teacher who is still baffled by the intricacies of this elegant and most important of scientific theories.
