Almost like a whale darwin and the origin of whales dr jessica theodor


Almost like a Whale by Steve Jones is a modern introduction to Charles Darwin's Origin of Species and closely follows its structure. It won the 1999 BP Natural World Book Prize.

Contents

An American version was published as Darwin's Ghost: The Origin of Species Updated (ISBN 978-0-375-50103-6).

The title refers to Darwin's observation that a bear, swimming in a lake and catching insects in its mouth, might conceivably evolve over time into a creature "almost like a whale". This statement attracted much ridicule at the time.
