Description:
In the second volume of the Discovering Life’s Story series by bestselling author Joy Hakim, the theory of evolution takes hold – transforming ideas about survival, extinction and life itself.

Can species change? Or become extinct? In the eighteenth century, most people didn't think so. But in the century that followed, our understanding of life was revolutionised. The Evolution of an Idea, the second volume of Discovering Life’s Story, opens with the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus, who attempts to create an organizing system for the myriad forms of life on earth. It continues into the late 1800s, when two Englishmen – Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace – each develop their own version of a startling new theory of how life-forms change over time, altering the understanding of our place in the great web of life on earth. In this remarkable volume, author Joy Hakim continues charting the path of human discovery and shows how groundbreaking thinkers began to unlock the biological secrets of our own existence.

Great Earth Science Resource
Format: Hardcover
We purchased this book to go along with our homeschooling Earth science curriculum. This book did not disappoint! Such engaging pop ups that really interested my kiddos. I’m teaching age ranges 7-12 and all of them enjoyed this book. I think the pop ups are something different so it grabbed their attention! I would recommend this book.

Fun Interactive Book
Format: Hardcover
This book is so fun to flip through. There's something interactive on every page. But the text isn't super engaging.

An Interesting New Work
Format: Paperback
I liked this work a great deal. It offered a great deal of intense story-driven moments and some great action scenes, and the art was pretty good (I won't say it was incredible, but it was very good). The story is intriguing, and after this first volume, a short arc has been fulfilled while leaving a lot of big questions unanswered in a fulfilling but still tantalizing way. I am perfectly satisfied with the serving size here and with the size of the book, and am happy to have added this to my shelf. Glad to have taken a chance on something new.
