Colin Tudge.  Basically, it classifies and describes every creature that
has ever lived.  There are probably about 30 cladograms, including some
really nice ones tracing the evolution of archosaurs, birds, mammals, and
specifically primates and humans.

Yep, it's a mammoth work by a good guy. Best way for non-brits to get hold
of it is probably through amazon.co.uk. (It'll only make it onto amazon.com
if it has a US version/distributor).
