I just read this book, and would be interested in the opinion
of some knowledgeable people.
The topic is evo-devo, and -- as I understand it, Arthur is
say that developmental biology is an important factor in the
understanding of evolution -- that developmental biology calls
attention back to the place of the organism (rather than the
gene or the population).
It is a brief and well-written book, above average in
readability.
