Samenvatting | Foreword by Alfred G. Fischer "He demonstrates how the pondering of seemingly small questions ... can lead to the discovery of large patterns, such as the way that organisms evolve in response to predators." Nature Blind since early childhood, the author has become a foremeost evolutionary biologist using mainly his sense of touch. Dr Vermeij is a leading authority on molluscs who travels the world in pursuit of his calling. His discoveries, based on feeling million-year old scarred or broken shells, have expanded our picture of how evolution works. |
