Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox book Almost like a Whale by Steve Jones is a modern introduction to Charles Darwin's Origin of Species and closely follows its structure.[1][2] It won the 1999 BP Natural World Book Prize.[3]

An American version was published as Darwin's Ghost: The Origin of Species Updated (Шаблон:ISBN).

The title refers to Darwin's observation that a bear, swimming in a lake and catching insects in its mouth, might conceivably evolve over time into a creature "almost like a whale". This statement attracted much ridicule at the time.
