Intelligent, interesting, well-illustrated with photographs. The historical notes are a really good effort, placing Darwin's life in the context of other events, and only a little bit sloppy.

Large format book with lovely photos of actual fossils on every page. Too many typos, and often it is quite unclear how the particular fossil illustration relates to the point being made. The cover has an impressive 3-D quality. The author has a point to make; he wants to advance his own theories about how and why new species are formed. The theories are fine as far as that goes.
