Evolution: The Story of Life on Earth (Paperback): Jay Hosler Evolution: The Story of Life on Earth (Paperback)

An accessible graphic introduction to evolution for the most science-phobic reader
Illustrated by the brilliant duo Kevin Cannon and Zander Cannon, this volume is written by the noted comic author and professor of biology Jay Hosler. "Evolution "features the same characters introduced in the highly regarded "The Stuff of Life: A Graphic Guide to Genetics and DNA," now here to explain the fundamentals of the evolution of life on earth. On the heels of explaining to his planetary leader the intricacies of human genetics in "The Stuff of Life," the intrepid alien scientist Bloort-183 is charged in this sequel with covering the wider story of evolution. Using the same storytelling conceit that "Plenty "magazine declared "so charming that you won't even notice you've absorbed an entire scientific field" and that caused "Seed "to pick "The Stuff of Life "as a best book of 2008, "Evolution "brilliantly answers "Wired"'s demand, "What's the solution to America's crisis in science education? More comic books "
"Evolution," the most accessible graphic work on this universally studied subject, takes the reader from earth's primordial soup to the vestigial structures, like the coccyx and the male nipple, of modern humans. Once again, the award-winning illustrations of the Cannons render the complex clear and everything cleverly comedic. And in Hosler, "Evolution "has an award-winning biology teacher whose science comics have earned him a National Science Foundation grant and an interview on NPR's "Morning Edition."

What would you do?

You buy a used tablet. It has an app with no name. Its icon is a plain black square. You have no idea what it does.

Do you dare run it?

If you're a boy of 12, of course you do.

Norm does. Then his life goes crazy. He visits times and places he never imagined, with excitement and danger everywhere. He meets angry Bedouins, revenge-minded ship captains, knife-throwing Gypsies, and gun-totin' cowboys. Plus a beautiful Gypsy girl -- Adara, a charming pickpocket from long-ago England.

Norm is lucky to have Burny, his dog, companion, and guardian. Also his conscience and voice of reason.

But the mysterious app has a dark side...
A children's book for adults -- the first of five

With 23 illustrations by Mindy Alper

"In The Sandwalk Adventures--now, stay with us here--Darwin engages in discussion with follicle mites that live in his left eyebrow. The mites believe Darwin is a god, one of the myths they have handed down from generation to generation. Darwin sets them straight about that and other mite fables as well, the result being lessons in natural selection." - The Chicago Tribune

Optical Allusions is the cure for all those clamoring for a painstakingly researched, scientifically accurate, eye-themed comic book adventure Wrinkles the Wonder Brain has lost his bosses' eye and now he has to search all of human imagination for it. Along the way, he confronts biology head on and accidentally learns more about eyes and the evolution of vision than he thought possible. And, as if a compelling story with disembodied talking brains, shape-changing proteins, and giant robot eyes wasn't enough, each tale is followed by a fully illustrated, in-depth exploration of the ideas introduced in the comic story. Following in the tradition of his first two books, "Clan Apis" and "The Sandwalk Adventures," Jay Hosler's "Optical Allusions" uses humor and adventure to weave an unforgettable story about the wonders of seeing.
