Eight Little Piggies: Reflections in Natural History Gould, Stephen Jay

**Eight Little Piggies: Reflections in Natural History** by Stephen Jay Gould

Stephen Jay Gould strikes again with this delightfully weird collection of essays that'll make you question everything you thought you knew about evolution and natural history. From debunking the myth that we only use 10% of our brains to exploring why pandas have thumbs, Gould serves up science with his trademark wit and zero tolerance for BS. He tackles everything from baseball statistics to the politics of taxonomy, proving that natural history is anything but boring.

Perfect for curious minds who love their science served with a side of skepticism – whether you're a biology student, armchair naturalist, or just someone who enjoys having their assumptions cheerfully demolished. Gould, Harvard's legendary paleontologist and science communicator, had a gift for making complex evolutionary concepts accessible without dumbing them down.

This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks is ready for its next adventure.
