An entertaining deep dive into muscle, from the discovery of human anatomy to the latest science of strength training.

Evolutionary theory in the theme that binds together these essays on such seemingly disparate topics as the feeding habits of flamingos, flowers and snails that change from male to female and sometimes back again, and the extinction from baseball of the .400 hitter.

La natura è più grande di noi perché ha tempi lunghi, anzi lunghissimi, mentre noi siamo su questo pianeta da duecento millenni o poco più. Come rane in un paiolo che non si accorgono di finire lentamente bollite, abbiamo cambiato la geofisiologia della Terra innescando un riscaldamento climatico che riduce la biodiversità e crea instabilità, migranti ambientali e conflitti per le risorse.

In this exploration of the concept of the gene, Jonathan Slack looks at the discovery, nature, and role of genes in both evolution and development. Explaining the nature of genetic variation in the human population, how hereditary factors were identified as molecules of DNA, and how certain specific mutations can lead to disease, Slack highlights how DNA variants are used to trace human ancestry and migration, and can also be used by forensic scientists to identify individuals in crime.

As biologist Jeremy Griffith explains in THE Interview (which psychiatrist Professor Harry Prosen described as “the most important interview of all time”), while we humans lacked the explanation for our two-million-year corrupted human condition, we had no choice but to deny that our distant ape ancestors lived in a state of cooperative and loving innocence. But with the good reason for our corrupted condition now finally found, our species’ original state of innocence can at last be admitted.

"El acertijo de la vida" es una fascinante narración de los hallazgos más importantes de la Biología durante el siglo XX y su revolución para dar paso a la genética. Para ello da cuenta de los actores más importantes en este proceso y el contexto en el que se dieron sus aportaciones: la importancia que tuvo Rosalind Franklin en el desarrollo del esquema de la doble hélice del ADN, las primeras ideas en la biología relacionadas a la búsqueda del gen y que dieron paso a la genética.

In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. Lead researcher Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid.

Hersenen fossiliseren niet waardoor het lastig is om de evolutie van het brein te onderzoeken. Maar door de hersenen van verschillende nog levende dieren te vergelijken, is het mogelijk te begrijpen welke uitdagingen de voorouders van die dieren hadden en hoe hun gedrag en hersenen zich daaraan hebben aangepast. Neurowetenschapper Rogier Mars onderzoekt in zijn hoorcollege de ontwikkeling en werking van het brein aan de hand van het eet- en leefgedrag van dieren als de zakpijp, de eekhoorn en de wolf, diverse primaten, zoals de lemuur en chimpansee, en natuurlijk de mens zelf.

Новые и познавательные эволюционные открытия.В третьем томе знаменитой «Эволюции человека» рассказывается о новых открытиях, сделанных археологами, палеоантропологами, этологами и генетиками за последние десять лет, а также о новых теориях, благодаря которым наше понимание собственного происхождения становится полнее и глубже. В свете новых данных на некоторые прежние выводы можно взглянуть под другим углом, а порой и предложить новые интерпретации.
