Books by Edward O. Wilson
On
Human Nature - an incredible, thought-provoking Pulitzer Prize-winning
exploration of the Nature vs. Nurture question. A classic.
Promethean
Fire: Reflections on the Origin of Mind (with Charles J. Lumsden) - one
of my favorite books about consciousness.
The
Ants (with Bert Holldobler) - the definitive scientific study of ants,
winner of the 1991 Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction, beautifully written
and illustrated.
Journey
to the Ants: A Story of Scientific Exploration - this book weaves in the
autobiographical story along with the science from the book above. Intended
for the layperson, but it doesn't skimp on information and is also beautifully
illustrated.
Consilience:
The Unity of Knowledge
Conserving Earth's Biodiversity: Instructor's Manual (with Dan L. Perlman)
