DARWIN BICENTENARY: 1809-2009:Remarkable Creatures: Epic Adventures in the Search for the Origin of Species, by Seán B. Carroll, Quercus, 331pp, £16
SEÁN CARROLL, Irish by descent, has written about Darwin and the adventures, both intellectual and physical, of some of those who helped to verify the Theory of Evolution. In 1859, Charles Darwin described how evolution occurred, throwing light “on the origin of man and his history”. Carroll’s book mostly tells us about other scientists who showed Darwin was right.
