The first book to examine the iconic depiction of evolution, the "march of progress," and its role in shaping our understanding of how humans evolved � We are all familiar with the "march of progress," the representation of evolution that depicts a series of apelike creatures becoming progressively taller and more erect before finally reaching the upright human form. Its emphasis on linear progress has had a decisive impact on public understanding of evolution, yet the image contradicts modern scientific conceptions of evolution as complex and branching. � This book is the first to examine the origins and history of this ubiquitous and hugely consequential illustration. In a story spanning more than a century, from Victorian Britain to America in the Space Age, Gowan Dawson traces the interconnected histories of the two most important versions of the image: the frontispiece to Thomas Henry Huxley's Evidence as to Man's Place in Nature (1863) and "The Road to Homo Sapiens," a fold-out illustration in the best-selling book Early Man (1965). Dawson explores how the recurring appearances of this image pointed to shifting scientific and public perspectives on human evolution, as well as indicated novel artistic approaches and advancements in technology.

Not Wrinkle-Free at All — Very Misleading Description
Color: Orange-pink, Size: Medium
I specifically purchased this clothing item because it was advertised as having “Wrinkle-Free Fabric.” Unfortunately, the actual result was very disappointing. After washing and drying it according to the care instructions, the entire garment came out covered in wrinkles. There was absolutely no sign of any wrinkle-free or anti-wrinkle effect. Every wash still requires ironing, which seriously contradicts the product description. If you are buying this item because of the “Wrinkle-Free” claim, I would recommend thinking twice. The quality does not match the advertising at all.

Not Wrinkle Free
Color: Blue, Size: X-Large
I like these shirts because they are comfortable and cool. The microfiber fabric is smooth and breathable. However, I find that they must be ironed while damp for best appearance. They do not dry wrinkle free. Also, small specks of lint from the washer seem to get caught in the microfiber weave.
