Simon Winchester: An Exploration of Skulls

Now here’s a scientific concept you can really wrap your head around: the story of more than 300 animals’ skulls, from every perspective imaginable: historical, biographical, cultural, and iconographic. Best-selling author Simon Winchester presents details about the parts of the skull; the science and pseudoscience of skulls; and skulls in religion, art, and popular culture, based on the collection of Alan Dudley, probably the largest and most complete private collection in the world.
