Link Love: Follow Carl Buell Through the Ages

My first book, At the Water's Edge, was graced by illustrations by the marvelous Carl Buell. He's got a lot of irons in the fire these days, including Evolution: What the Fossils Say and Why It Matters, which publishes this month. Paleontologist Donald Prothero is the author, and it's packed with illustrations such as this one, which shows mammal-like reptiles that were increasingly more closely related to the first mammals. While you wait for the book to arrive, you can peruse his Flickr pages. [Illustration couresy of Carl Buell]
