| Spectacular, mysterious, elegant, or grotesque, the vertebrate skeletons of Earth s fossil record carry within them the traces of several billion years of life. "Evolution in Action", a resounding success on its initial publication in 2007, is a unique and beautiful attempt to provide a map of those billion years in time. Now updated and presented in a smaller format with seventeen new utterly distinctive photographs, this book steps beyond the debate and presents the undeniable truth of Darwin s theory, showing through 200 photographs of skeletons both obscure and commonplace, but always intriguing, the process by which life has transformed itself, again and again. |
