Eggs, Evolution, and Life on Earth

From Saturday Morning, 8:10 am today

Without an egg, we and all other creatures wouldn't exist.

More often than not the focus has been firmly on the outcome of the egg - what it produces - but zoological correspondent and author Jules Howard has turned the tables.

In his book Infinite Life: A Revolutionary Story of Eggs, Evolution and Life on Earth Jules tells the exceptional story of the egg.
