Darwin's Universe. Evolution from A to Z. - MILNER, RICHARD [IAN TATTERSALL|STEPHEN JAY GOULD - FOREW.].
evolution from A to Z
KORTE INHOUD
"Darwin's Universe is the single best volume ever published that covers all matters Darwinian from A to Z. I have never so enjoyed a scientific book, plucking out gems of elegant narrative richly supported by photographs and paintings from the history of evolutionary thought. A magnificent product of scholarship that is also a work of art."--Michael Shermer, author of In Darwin's Shadow and Why Darwin Matters "This is no staid, humorless encyclopedia of natural history and evolution; rather, it is a joyous romp through a world inhabited by as eccentric and absorbing a cast of characters as was ever brought together between endpapers."--From the preface by Ian Tattersall, author of The Monkey in the Mirror and The Fossil Trail
