Description
Through 200 revelatory images, award-winning photographer Robert Clark makes one of the most important foundations of science clear and exciting to everyone. Evolution: A Visual Record transports readers from the near-mystical (human ancestors) to the historic (the famous 'finches' Darwin collected on the Galàpagos Islands that spurred his theory); the recently understood (the link between dinosaurs and modern birds) to the simply astonishing.
