"Joan Fontcuberta and Pere Formiguera, described not as authors but as scientific researchers, have fabricated a seemingly authentic, but outlandish book. Even the subject matter of the photographs has been created by the authors. . .The package is entirely believable; the contents preposterous. . .The ironic and satirical approach employed by Fontcuberta and Formiguera in this mock refutation of Darwin's theories raises serious questions about the nature of scientific methods as well as the veracity of photographic documentation."
