Product reviewsThe Variety of Life: A survey and a celebration of all the creatures that have ever lived by Colin Tudge (Paperback, 2002)

A tour de force across nature.

This is a delightful journey through the natural world, relating the parts to the whole and stopping long enough to explain what / how / when for each of the the major groups of organisms. The illustrations are good and the "family trees" employed to make sense of things at regular intervals are well thought out. A gem of a book.Read full review...
