D'Abrera, Bernard

2006, 272 pages, 150 color photo plates illustrating 6,400+ butterflies at ~60% of natural size, 25 color habitat photos & regional world map. This inexpensive and convenient book was designed and produced to serve as a popular and easy guide to the identification of true butterflies (Papilionoidea) at least to genus level. It contains extremely clear and accurate color photographs of at least one species for most, if not all known genera of this important Superfamily of Lepidoptera. It is superior in number of specimens illustrated, and quality of printing. Each butterfly image is referenced to a brief but authoritative text, showing the number of known species in the genus and its geographical distribution. There is also a short introductory section on the biology and behavior of butterflies with beautiful photographs of living insects in their natural habitat. Laminated soft cover; 8-1/2 x 11”.

Explore Evolution: The Arguments For and Against Neo-Darwinism

The purpose of Explore Evolution is to examine the scientific controversy about Darwin's theory, and in particular, the contemporary version of the theory known as neo-Darwinism. Whether you are a teacher, a student, or a parent, this book will help you understand what Darwin's theory of evolution is, why many scientists find it persuasive, and why other scientists question the theory or some key aspects of it.
Sometimes, scientists find that the same evidence can be explained in more than one way. When there are competing theories, reasonable people can (and do) disagree about which theory best explains the evidence. Furthermore, in the historical sciences, neither side can directly verify its claims about past events. Fortunately, even though we can't directly verify these claims, we can test them. How? First, we gather as much evidence as possible and look at it carefully. Then, we compare the competing theories in light of how well they explain the evidence.
Looking at the evidence and comparing the competing explanations will provide the most reliable path to discovering which theory, if any, gives the best account of the evidence at hand. In science, it is ultimately the evidence-and all of the evidence-that should tell us which theory offers the best explanation. This book will help you explore that evidence, and we hope it will stimulate your interest in these questions as you weigh the competing arguments.
