The Kingfisher Book Of Evolution

The Kingfisher Book of Evolution

The Kingfisher Book of Evolution follows the story of life as it unfolds on Earth. Every aspect of evolution is covered, beginning with a look at the first primitive organisms 3.5 million years ago and ending with a daring vision of life in the future. Explore evolution from the perspectives of religion, myth, and history; join Darwin on his exciting voyage of discovery on the Beagle; and witness vivid reconstructions of the lives of our ancestors! The clear text, detailed illustrations and photographs make it easy for young readers to understand the science behind concepts such as genetics, heredity, and cloning, and to follow the trail of life from DNA to dinosaurs and beyond. Includes a factfile, glossary, and index.
