Evolution: Education and Outreach is fortunate to have an enthusiastic  and talented group of researchers who have volunteered to review books for us. Usually, books are claimed by reviewers within 48 hours of the announcement that they are available! In addition to reviewers all around the United States, we have a reviewer from Chile, three in Italy, and one in Panama, at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. Pretty cool, huh?
