Paul Ehrlich
Human Natures: Genes, Cultures, and the Human Prospect
Arthur M. Sackler Museum, 485 Broadway

In a new book that is sure to stir controversy, Paul R. Ehrlich, one of the world's leading evolutionary biologists, shows why most of those claims of genetic destiny cannot be true, and explains how the arguments often stem from a fundamental misunderstanding of evolution itself.

Evelyn Fox Keller
The Century of the Gene
Arthur M. Sackler Museum, 485 Broadway

One of our most gifted historians and philosophers of science provides a profound analysis of the achievements of molecular biology in the twentieth century.
