The brand new glossy Winter 2012 edition of the Museum's magazine Evolve is now available to buy.

 

The Library & Archives collections and staff feature in at least three articles!

 

 

The Birds of America - In October 2011 the NHM published a reproduction of John James Audubon's huge work The Birds of America. Learn more about this record breaking book and its author.

 

 

Hoping great things.... the search for early humans - With the 100th anniversary approaching, Karolyn Shindler has been researching the collections relating to the Piltdown Man and Sir Arthur Smith Woodward. This is the first of four forthcoming articles.

The latest edition of Evolve, the Museum's quarterly magazine, is now on sale!

 

Once again we have another great show of articles relating to the Library's collections. A piece by Judith Magee, our Library Special Collections Curator, relating to the new Images of Nature Gallery opening in the New Year. (See our previous blog Images of Nature Gallery.) Alison Harding, Assistant Librarian, tells us about Frederick Du Cane Godman and his legacy to the NHM collections, whilst Karolyn Shindler, NHM Scientific Associate, continues her fasinating series on Richard Owen.

 

Members of the Museum receive Evolve as part of their Membership. But non-members can buy the magazine in our Museum shops (£3.50) or subscribe online.

We are very pleased to say that two of the articles have been written by regular researchers to the Library. Karolyn Shindler discusses the very public feud between Charles Darwin and Richard Owen, whilst Tracy Chevalier talks about Mary Anning.
