Adapt or die: it's nature's most famous imperative. But how does evolution actually happen?
It's too slow to see but it's going on all around you all the time. Even if you're on top of
the key terms - variation? Natural selection? Parent-offspring conflict? - you still need some
context to put them in. From populations to speciation and polymorphism to evolutionary
psychology here's the one-stop source for all you need to know.Evolution unlocks the
laboratory of life dissecting it into the 50 most significant topics that provide the missing
links to understand the natural world's four-billion-year ancestry and the process of natural
selection in which species either adapt in myriad ways - mutation ingenuity and intelligence
- to meet the challenges of a changing environment or die. Unravel the development of living
organisms at micro and macro level - from genes to geniuses.
