Facts and Arguments for Darwin
Fritz Müller and William Sweetland Dallas
A naturalist in Brazil set out to test Darwin's theory against the crustaceans in his hands. Fritz Muller traces the development of shrimp and crab larvae, finding in their strange transformations powerful evidence for descent with modification. A classic contribution to evolutionary science. Watch the theory confirmed in the growth of small sea creatures.
