Inhalt:
All organisms and species are transitory, yet life endures. The origin, extinction, and evolution of species - interconnected as 'eternal ephemera' - are the concern of evolutionary biology. Niles Eldredge follows leading thinkers as they have wrestled for more than 200 years with the eternal skein of life composed of ephemeral beings, revitalising evolutionary science with their own, more resilient findings. Filled with insights into the field and told with a rich affection for the scientific arena, he celebrates the organic, vital relationship between scientific thinking and its subjects.
