Review:
As witty as he is learned, Gould has a born essayist's ability to evoke the general out of fascinating particulars. . . . He is a thinker and writer as central to our times as any whose name comes to mind. . . . Whether he is explaining how zebras get their stripes, [or] why it is fallacious to assume that extinction means biological 'failure' . . . Gould's passion for truth an generosity of spirit make him one of nature's true wonders. --Gene Lyons"

Delectable. . . . A happy evolutionary tour de force. Gould is a true natural philosopher in the grand tradition of the Enlightenment. Read, learn, and enjoy. "

Lively and fascinating. . . . [Gould] writes beautifully about science and the wonders of nature.--Tracy Kidder
From the Back Cover:
Over a century after Darwin published the Origin of Species, Darwinian theory is in a 'vibrantly healthy state, ' writes Stephen Jay Gould, its most engaging and illuminating exponent. Exploring the 'peculiar and mysterious particulars of nature, ' Gould introduces the reader to some of the many and wonderful manifestations of evolutionary biology.
