Evolutionary biologist Douglas Emlen and Science writer Carl Zimmer continue to improve their widely-praised evolution textbook.

With riveting stories about evolutionary biologists at work everywhere from the Arctic to tropical rainforests to hospital wards, the book is a reading adventure designed to grab the imagination of students, showing them exactly why evolution makes such a brilliant sense of life.
