Title
Full House - The Spread of Excellence From Plato to Darwin
Description
Image of the cover of Stephen Jay Gould's book, Full House. Gould shows why a more accurate way of understanding our world is to look at a given subject within its own context, to see it as a part of a spectrum of variation and then to reconceptualize trends as expansion or contraction of this “full house” of variation, and not as the progress or degeneration of an average value, or single thing.
This cover has various illustrations of frogs in the wild.
The cover also includes a sticker which says "25% off International Bestsellers" and "Author of Dinosaur in a Haystack"
