A unique look at evolution
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
An understandable and informative look at the thoery of evolution. The author offers an interesting format for readers - alternating between vivid story-based reconstructions of primitive society and question-answer sessions between a virtual professor and student. Once and a while the reading level of the book dropped to a frustrating low level, but all in all I felt it acheived the goal of expressing evolution in a palatable format. It was also refreshingly neutral about race and gender - exploring the roles of all humans in past soceities. A recommended read.
