Remarkable Creatures

Remarkable Creatures: Epic Adventures in the Search for the Origin of Species Remarkable Creatures: Epic Adventures in the Search for the Origin of Species by Sean Carroll


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
Sean Carroll does a great job illuminating the discoveries, voyages, and people that contributed to our current understanding of evolutionary theory. From Darwin and Wallace to Leakey and Pauling, Remarkable Creatures goes around the world and across disciplines. There's evolutionary theory, paleoanthropology and molecular biology, all explained clearly, simply and interestingly.

Hm. That does sound interesting! I am a Darwin believer, in case you were wondering.
