The Richness of Life
A Stephen Jay Gould Reader
There aren't many scientists famous enough in their lifetime to be canonized by the US Congress as one of America's 'living legends'. This book selects from across the full range of Gould's writing, including some of the most famous of his essays and extracts from his major books. The introduction sets both the essays and Gould's life in context.
