Why read it?
1 author picked The Basics of Evolution as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I am impressed by how the author packs into just 94 pages a wealth of basic information, and even some fascinating obscure details about the process of evolution.
It is generously illustrated with color photographs and charts. Drawings and captions show "How Fossils Form," "Geological Time," and "Evidence in the Rocks," and Anne Wanjie's text is inviting and clear.
From Laurence's list on that explain the fascinating process of evolution.
