Jones, a geneticist, assumes Darwin’s standpoint and rewrites his masterpiece for the modern reader, borrowing the structure and thesis but updating it with the benefit of 150 years of hindsight. Almost Like a Whale draws widely on case studies and new research to reinforce the claims of evolutionary theory, such as embryology and Jones' own discipline of genetics.
