Challenging the traditional understanding of evolution, Niles Eldredge presents a groundbreaking theory that suggests species undergo little change after their initial evolution, with new species emerging in rapid bursts. Drawing on his research with trilobite fossils, he explores the implications of punctuated equilibria, which addresses the gaps in the fossil record that Darwin's gradualism struggles to explain. This work invites readers to reconsider established beliefs about the evolutionary process and its pace.
