This is a very well written book on early (375 million years old) fish fossils and their relevance to the evolution of life on our planet. On the topic of the “e word” please know that the term evolution is used in the Lucy exhibit, as well as on the museum’s website on Lucy. Perhaps the person you overheard was mistaken in his or her assumption. <BR/><BR/>Kind regards,<BR/><BR/>Dirk Van Tuerenhout, Ph.D.<BR/>Curator of Anthropology<BR/>HMNSDirk Van Tuerenhoutnoreply@blogger.com
