In his lifetime, Charles Darwin was roundly mocked for suggesting that humans were descended from apes, and even in our own day, the teaching of evolution remains controversial. But in the century and a half since the publication of On the Origin of Species, our increasingly sophisticated understanding of genetics has borne out Darwins theory: humans share 99% of their genes with chimps (and many even with grapes!).99% Ape offers an accessible, straightforward introduction to evolution, beginning with Darwins discoveries and continuing through the latest genetic discoveries. Edited by Jonathan Silvertown, the volume brings together experts in a variety of fields pertinent to evolution, from paleobiology to planetary science, comparative anatomy to zoology, and evenfor a discussion of legal battles surrounding the teaching of evolutionlaw. Interwoven with these varied accounts of evolution and its impact are vignettes from Darwins life that illustrate the continuity of thought that links Darwins work to todays cuttingedge research.Beautifully illustrated, 99% Ape is a perfect companion to the upcoming celebration of Darwins bicentennial and a bracing reminder of the important role evolution still has to play in our understanding of our originsand our possible futures.
