A review by nelli_lakatos
Wonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History by Stephen Jay Gould

4.0

“Alter any event, ever so slightly and without apparent importance at the time, and evolution cascades into radically different channel.”

This was a fascinating book that tells the story of the fossils found in the Burgess Shale in Canada.
This was an extraordinary read, wonderfully written and entertaining. I really enjoyed it and also learned from it!
I highly recommend to anyone interested in paleontology, evolution and the origin of life.

Thank you to @netgalley and the publisher for providing an AudioARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
