The Lying Stones of Marrakech (2000) is the ninth volume of collected essays by the Harvard paleontologist, Stephen Jay Gould.[1][2]
The essays were culled from his monthly column "The View of Life" in Natural History magazine, to which Gould contributed for nearly 30 years.[2] The book deals with themes familiar to Gould's writing: evolution and its teaching, science biography, probability, and iconoclasm.
