Omschrijving
“[T]here are ideas here that palaeontologists and physiologists disagree with. That is all part and parcel of doing science and Lovegrove is familiar with the many debates. Fires of Life, meanwhile, makes physiology incredibly fascinating and ranks very high on my list of favourite books on evolution this year.”— Leon Vlieger, Natural History Book Service
"In my view Barry Gordon Lovegrove is probably the best person alive to tackle this subject in the round."—Andrew Clarke, Emeritus Fellow, British Antarctic Survey, author of Principles of Thermal Ecology
"This book was quite impossible to put down. Barry Gordon Lovegrove has spent his life working on issues related to the question he poses, and his thoughts and ideas are well worth considering."—Mark Brigham, University of Regina and Rhodes University
"Barry Lovegrove has a history of tackling key macroevolutionary questions from the perspective of evolutionary physiology. In this must-read, he elucidates the evolution of endothermy in mammals and in the ancestors of birds and dinosaurs."—Theodore Garland, Jr., University of California, Riverside
“The evolutionary journey of endothermy in vertebrates: a lot older and hotter than you think.”—Fritz Geiser, University of New England
