About This Item
Jonathan Cape, 1998 8vo (24 cm), X, 422 pp. Publisher's cloth and dust jacket. The book is the eighth volume of collected essays by the Harvard paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould. The essays were culled from his monthly column "The View of Life" in 'Natural History' magazine, to which Gould contributed for 27 years. The book deals, in typically discursive fashion, with themes familiar to Gould's writing: evolution and its teaching, science biography, probabilities and common sense.
