How has the Earth and life on it changed? Are birds and dinosaurs related? Why do looks count? 'The Diversity of Species' explains how and why things on Earth have genetic and physical differences. Be amazed by the giants of the Galapagos and Komodo islands, study why the beaks of Charles Darwin's finches are important, and see what makes the chameleon's long, sticky tongue such a useful adaptation.
