Issue 11

The 11th issue of Evolve goes behind the scenes of the Museum's latest exhibition, Animal Inside Out, from the team behind Gunther von Hagens' famous Body Worlds shows. We discover how the specimens are created and what they reveal.

To celebrate World Oceans Day in June, we feature a series of breathtaking images by underwater photographer Mark Laita, and marine conservation biologist Professor Callum Roberts looks at the impact of fishing in the North Sea. From fish to creepy-crawlies, we discuss the pros and cons of entomophagy and whether insects are a sustainable food for the future. 

Part 2 of our Piltdown Man series of articles looks at the effect of the hoax on former Keeper of Geology at the Natural History Museum, Arthur Smith Woodward, and how it undermined his reputation. And naturalist and TV presenter Nigel Marven tells us why he is inspired by the Museum.
