If you want to read a *most* impressive book, I recommend _The
Nurture Assumption_ by Judith Rich Harris. Her work is just solidly
in tune with good science, something rare in the social sciences world.
She has done it again with a very solid article "Parental selection:
A third selection process in the evolution of human hairlessness and
skin color."

This short article has my highest recommendation.
