The descent of all life through evolutionary processes is not a 'theory' in the sense that the creationists would have us believe. So overwhelming is the evidence for evolution by descent that one could say that it is as secure as the fact that the Earth goes around the Sun and not the other way around.

Away for a while and picked it up at random. Reads like I never left.

Chapter one is a tour of cubbies and specimen storage areas
as the author wandered unsupervised through the British
Museum of Natural History's stored collections.Closed to the
public is a "miscellaneous repository, a place of institutional
amnesia" known as Dry Storeroom No.1.
He sees the room as a metaphor for one's lifetime : a collection of sorts.
Like suppressed memories. "We are all our own curators."
