(4) YA Science Discovery Timelines series. Clear organization helps make fairly dense content accessible. Four sections (e.g., "Evolving Ideas of Evolution") begin with a pictorial timeline of selected milestones, such as Lamarck's 1809 book proposing inherited changes, followed by illustrated text that expounds on these milestones. The selections are generally sound, though somewhat limited, and the prose undistinguished. A suggested activity lacks sufficient background. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind.
