Why Evolution is True

(Viking) Why Evolution is True draws on empirical evidence across a broad spectrum of scientific inquiry — ranging from genetics, anatomy, and molecular biology to paleontology and geology — to demonstrate the truth of evolution by natural selection. Containing 22 of Monoyios’ original halftone illustrations, the book summarizes the facts supporting Darwinian evolution, and shows how evolution actually enhances the beauty of life. Jerry A. Coyne is an ecology and evolution professor at the University of Chicago. Kalliopi Monoyios is a scientific illustrator in the department of organismal biology and anatomy at the University of Chicago and the founder of Kalliopi Monoyios’ Illustration & Fine Art Studio in Chicago.
