A senior curator of invertebrate paleontology at the Western Australian Museum in Perth offers a new perspective on evolution by looking at how changes in the size and shape of animals and plants occur, what factors other than genetic mutation and natural selection operate, and what factors influence the changes. Central to his inquiry is the phenomenon known as heterochrony, changes in the rate and timing of the growth and development of individuals. Accessible to general readers.
