This book has the most accurate information about walking whales, walking seals and bat ancestors. The Grand Experiment now is the definitive source of information about walking whales with interviews with the scientists involved in the discovery of Rodhocetus, Ambulocetus, Pakicetus, Indohyus, SInonyx. Also this book has high resolution photographs of the ear bones (bulla) of Pakicetus, Ambulocetus and many modern whales. This new e-book edition also introduces a fourteen-page appendix addressing Puijila darwini, the latest proposed ancestor for seals, sea lions and walruses. Readers are given the opportunity to compare the skeleton of Puijila alongside the skeletons of otters, seals and sea lions depicted in thirty high-resolution photographs. Readers are encouraged to form their own opinion regarding the authenticity of Puijila darwini's part in seal evolution.
