” A friend told me once that Stephen Gould made science fun.î

I tried reading him. I don’t like him. My tastes run toward style of Steven Pinker of the ìHow the Mind Worksî http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0393318486/102-3432185-1276911?v=glance and ìThe Blank Slateî http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0142003344/qid=1123045197/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-3432185-1276911?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 fame. Not only excellent scientist, but very amusing writer.

If you are interested in studies about observable process of speciation, I recommend ìThe Beak of the Finchî http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/067973337X/qid=1123045318/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-3432185-1276911?v=glance&s=books&n=507846 by Johnatan Weiner.

But then I am a hopeless Darwinist.

Jamie,

Right-o! :-)
