A fully updated edition of one of the most original accounts of
evolution ever written, featuring new fractal diagrams, six new
'tales' and the latest scientific developments. THE ANCESTOR'S TALE
is a dazzling, four-billion-year pilgrimage to the origins of life:
Richard Dawkins and Yan Wong take us on an exhilarating reverse
journey through evolution, from present-day humans back to the
microbial beginnings of life. It is a journey happily interrupted
by meetings of fellow modern animals (as well as plants, fungi and
bacteria) similarly tracing their evolutionary path back through
history. As each evolutionary pilgrim tells their tale, Dawkins and
Wong shed light on topics such as speciation, sexual selection and
extinction. Written with unparalleled wit, clarity and
intelligence, taking in new scientific discoveries of the past
decade, and including new 'tales', illustrations and fractal
diagrams, THE ANCESTOR'S TALE shows us how remarkable we are, how
astonishing our history, and how intimate our relationship with the
rest of the living world.
