Evolution

by John Gribbin

Change is an inescapable fact of life. The theory of evolution explains how and why living things change, generation by generation, as they adapt to the world around them. Here, David Burnie demystifies evolution, describing how it occurs, and why - 150 years after it was first proposed - it remains one of the most contested areas of human knowledge.
