Great Adaptations: Star-Nosed Moles, Electric Eels, and Other Tales of Evolution’s Mysteries Solved

byKenneth Catania

Great Adaptations examines star-Nosed Moles, Electric Eels, and Other Tales of Evolution’s Mysteries Solved, combining Kenneth Catania's clear narrative with the perspective of a science narrative. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the wider field of science. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. Great Adaptations leaves readers with key context and a clear view of the human stakes involved.
