Eight Little Piggies. Reflections In Natural History Book

This collection of essays range from history to the latest theories in biology, from controversies over palaeontology to the origins of language.

If evolution had taken a tiny shift - if man's ancestors had inherited a couple of genes in a different form - our canonical number, based on man's fingers and toes, might be eight instead of ten. Stephen Jay Gould has also written "Wonderful Life", "Bully for Brontosaurus" and "Finders Keepers".Read More
