Epic Adventures in the Search for the Origins of Species
(Sprache: Englisch)
In 1809, when Darwin was born, much of the world was an unexplored wilderness. Our knowledge of the past was nonexistent, and our picture of our species' history little more than a set of fantastic myths and fairytales. But a new era was dawning.

Rezension zu „Remarkable Creatures “
Leaves you with an overwhelming sense of awe and respect for the most remarkable of creatures, the men and women who ... gave us a profound sense of place among life on Earth - Guardian. 'A bracing tonic for those whose rational enjoyment of the natural universe currently seems in danger of being overwhelmed by the strident infantilism of creationists' Spectator. 'This year's double Darwin anniversary has inspired an outpouring of excellent books. This may be the best of all.' Financial Times. 'Sean Carroll is... a forceful public advocate for biological science as one of the glories of our culture... As Remarkable Creatures vividly shows, this is not yet another trip down the heritage nostalgia trail but the celebration of a vital tradition' Daily Mail.
