One of the best books that I've read in a long time: "The Ancestor's Tale", by Richard Dawkins. If you're not familiar with his books, he's an evolutionary biologist who holds the Charles Simonyi Chair for Public Understanding of Science at Oxford University. It's about 600 pages long, but there's no need to read it all in one go. If you have even the *smallest* shred of interest in evolution or in zoology, I promise you that you won't be able to put it down!
He's also virulently anti-Creationism, and that's always good fun too =P Simon
