Epigraph

Judging from the past, we may safely infer that not one living species will transmit its unaltered likeness to a distant futurity. And of the species now living very few will transmit progeny of any kind to a far distant futurity.

- Charles Darwin
On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life (1859)

Dedication

To Sandra, again,
and to the rest of us, in hope of long perspectives

First words

As the plane descended toward Darwin it ran into a cloud of billowing black smoke.
