Evolution

"The theory of evolution that Charles Darwin put forth in the nineteenth century has been broadly confirmed and enriched by the discovery of genes and by advances in the life sciences, from paleontology to embryology. The idea developed in this book is to take account of that scientific fact. It offers a panorama of the world of the vertebrates, the zoological group we ourselves are part of. This kinship, which is obvious when we observe the deep structure of animals, helps us to comprehend the mechanisms of evolution and to grasp all its facets."--BOOK JACKET.De Panafieu, Jean-Baptiste is the author of 'Evolution', published 2007 under ISBN 9781583227848 and ISBN 1583227849.
