Christmas, 1859. Just one month after the publication of On the Origin of Species, Charles Darwin received an unsettling letter. He had expected criticism; in fact, letters were arriving daily, most expressing outrage and accusations of heresy. But this letter was different. It accused him of failing to acknowledge his predecessors, of taking credit for a theory that had already been discovered by others.

Every human should read the chapter on Aristotle.

If you are already familiar with the subject, this book will be a delightful romp through history. it ties together ideas and individuals and shows how memes travel from generation to generation. I could see parts of it dragging if you aren't already a fan of the history of evolution, but I think every human should read the chapter on Aristotle, which describes the birth of empiricism in the most lovely and informative way.
