Synopsis
DNA, the genetic blueprint of all creatures, is a stunningly rich and detailed record of evolution. Every change or new trait, from the gaudy colors of tropical birds to our color vision with which we admire them, is due to changes in DNA that leave a record and can be traced. Just as importantly, the DNA evidence has revealed several profound surprises about how evolution actually works.

From the Back Cover
As well as containing the operating instructions for everyday existence, DNA contains a vast and detailed history of the three-billion-year development of life on Earth. In The Making of the Fittest, Sean B. Carroll pinpoints the precise changes that have enabled Earth's creatures to inhabit the planet's shifting environments, from the freezing waters of the Antarctic to the lush canopy of the rainforest.
The Making of the Fittest continues the quest to better understand the living world for a new generation. By delving deep in the DNA record, Carroll reveals not just how the fittest survive but also how they are made.
