Product Description
New York Times Book Review
'The centerpiece of The Crucible of Creation is a description, authoritative and readable, of the animals themselves.'

New Scientist
"tells a great story and manages to be informative at all levels. Conway Morris has a collector's eye for the sort of entertaining yet informative snippets that keep readers on their toes."
