Along the way, take in lively biographies of fifty of the most successful species that have evolved in the wild from slime moulds and sea scorpions to dragonflies and dung beetles followed by fifty species that have thrived as a result of man’s interference from dogs,cats and chickens to wheat, coffee and bananas.
