Fiction that involves the evolution of the Morganucodon (the earliest found mammal fossil) to modern man [s]

[Tim]

This is a sci-fi book that I read many years ago that involves evolution from the Morganucodon to the modern age of humans. The story follows, what I think, is the consciousness of this one particular mammal through time. It escapes predators early on and evolves to other types of mammals to early man in the hunter/gatherer phase to agriculture to the building of civilization.

I was at the Smithsonian in DC over the weekend and saw an exhibit featuring the Morganucodon. Now, it's bugging me to remember this book.

Thanks for any help!

Would it be Evolution by Stephen Baxter?
