The Evidence for Evolution

by Alan R. Rogers ...

According to polling data, most Americans doubt that evolution is a real phenomenon. And it's no wonder that so many are skeptical: many of today's biology courses and textbooks dwell on the mechanisms of evolution—natural selection, genetic drift, and gene flow—but say little about the evidence that evolution happens at all. How do we know that species change? Has there really been enough time ... Read more

We expect tales to tell how the day was won, obstacles overcome. Problem/Solution. Victor/Villain. The present collection is less binary. There are dæmons, some hiding in plain sight often as other people. Or hiding as ourselves, for it isn't always obvious who is the hero, merely who tells the tale.
