Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopedia: Evolution

  The editor of the 1976 first edition, Herbert Wendt, said: “In the individual articles here the reader will find material he has not encountered in other works. However, science never comes to a standstill; it knows no final conclusion, and each new work brings forth new information compiled from the latest research in that field. . . . The reader can become acquainted with current theoretical thinking about evolution in reading this volume.” This volume is the next iteration in the continuing accumulation of knowledge about the origins and inner workings of our natural world.
