Cut a worm in two and both halves may live. Thomas Hunt Morgan, later a Nobel laureate, examines how animals and plants regrow lost parts, from lateral regeneration to the rebuilding of whole bodies from a single piece. Foundational biology written with clarity and wonder. Explore life's astonishing power to remake what it has lost.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
