Summary

In Ernst Haeckel's renowned work, 'The History of Creation,' readers are taken on a journey through the evolution of life on Earth, from its earliest forms to the complexity of modern species. Written in a detailed and scientific style, Haeckel's book provides a comprehensive overview of the process of evolution and the interconnectedness of all living organisms. With meticulous illustrations and thorough explanations, this book is a pivotal text in the field of biology and evolutionary theory. Haeckel's literary style is both informative and engaging, making complex scientific concepts accessible to a wide audience. Originally published in the 19th century, 'The History of Creation' remains a classic work in the study of evolution and biology. Ernst Haeckel, a prominent German biologist and philosopher, was a key figure in the development of evolutionary theory. His research and contributions to the fields of zoology and morphology provided the foundation for many modern scientific principles. Inspired by the works of Charles Darwin, Haeckel sought to popularize evolutionary theory through his writings, including 'The History of Creation.' His dedication to the study of natural history and his passion for educating the public are evident in this influential book. I highly recommend 'The History of Creation' to readers interested in the origins of life, evolution, and the natural world. Haeckel's meticulous research and engaging writing style make this book a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of all living beings and the evolutionary processes that have shaped our world.

    Built from the debris of exploding stars that floated through space for billions of years, home to a zoo of tiny aliens, and controlled by a brain with more possible connections than there are atoms in the universe, the human body is the most incredible thing in existence.

In the sequel to his bestselling Inflight Science, Brian Clegg explores mitochondria, in-cell powerhouses which are thought to have once been separate creatures; how your eyes are quantum traps, consuming photons of light from the night sky that have travelled for millions of years; your many senses, which include the ability to detect warps in space and time, and why meeting an attractive person can turn you into a gibbering idiot.

Read THE UNIVERSE INSIDE YOU and you'll never look at yourself the same way again.

    Intrigued by a dream, an aging elf adventures beyond the meadow creek he has called home since being sent into the wilderness as an orphan. Driven by insatiable curiosity, he sets off with only the words of a nursery rhyme to direct him:If ever you’re lost in confusion,Turn to the creek and its flow:Meandering, falling through gorge,Through desert, in drought, or in snow.Step forth with a stride quick and steady.Trust guidance to come as you go.Its course from the crest of the Rockies to the vast Pacific leads him through a colorful spectrum of lives and deaths of roadrunners that heal and hummingbird historians, a halfling and a blundering alchemist, both empathic and aggressive cacti, an effete bullfrog and a giggling mama bear. The lyrical prose builds till the Deepest Longing we each carry calls his heart Homeward.Learn the ways of water and glimpse the biodiversity of our spectacular American West. Join the ever-changing dance of creek and elf as they pass among a delightful contingent of creatures who have lessons for Rowan’s ebbing life . . . and perhaps yours.“A cult classic.” Nancy London, co-author of Our Bodies, Our Selves.“Rich imagery to be enjoyed in small bites . . . like chocolate.” Rev.
