പരിണാമത്തെപ്പറ്റിയുള്ള പുസ്തകങ്ങള്‍ ഒരുപക്ഷേ മുമ്പേ മലയാളത്തില്‍ ഉണ്ടായിട്ടുണ്ടാകാം. എന്നാല്‍ പരിണാമശാസ്ത്രത്തിന്റെ അടിസ്ഥാനവും തെളിവുകളും പ്രസക്തിയും പ്രതിപാദിക്കുന്ന ഇതുപോലൊന്ന് ഞാന്‍ വായിച്ചിട്ടില്ല. പ്രപഞ്ചത്തിന്റെ ഉല്‍പ്പത്തി മുതല്‍ ഡിഎന്‍എ വരെ, എന്താണ് ജീവന്‍ എന്ന ചോദ്യം മുതല്‍ മനുഷ്യന്റെ ജനനംവരെ വളരെ ലളിതമായ ഭാഷയില്‍ ഈ പുസ്തകം പറഞ്ഞുതരുന്നു. ശാസ്ത്രത്തില്‍ അറിവില്ലാത്തവര്‍ക്കും, അറിവ് വേണമെന്ന് ആഗ്രഹിക്കുന്നവര്‍ക്കും വേണ്ടി വേണ്ടത്ര റഫറന്‍സുകള്‍ കൊടുത്ത് വളരെ ആധികാരികതയോടെ എഴുതിയ ഒന്നാണിത്. — ഡോ. മുരളി തുമ്മാരുകുടി

Despite efforts to sustain civilization, humanity faces existential threats from overpopulation, globalized trade and travel, urbanization, and global climate change. In A Darwinian Survival Guide, Daniel Brooks and Salvatore Agosta offer a novel—and hopeful—perspective on how to meet these tremendous challenges by changing the discourse from sustainability to survival. Darwinian evolution, the world’s only theory of survival, is the means by which the biosphere has persisted and renewed itself following past environmental perturbations, and it has never failed, they explain.

From the moment of creation to the emergence of a planet tailor-made for life, science tells a sacred story: a superintelligent Creator used His mathematical genius to convert lifeless equations into galaxies, planets, and people. His love has been visible throughout the process. Could our journey reflect thousands of random accidents with no divine guidance? Creation delivered impulses that filled the universe with galaxies and stars. Eliminate any one of those blueprints and the universe would have been stillborn.

Sociogenomics brings together advances in molecular genetics and traditional social and behavioral science. The key tool is the polygenic index, which allows us to analyze DNA to measure a child's genetic potential. Today, we can estimate a child's adult height, how far they will go in school, and their weight as an adult—all from a cheek swab, finger prick, or vial of saliva. Dalton Conley and other researchers are using this new science to shed light on the ways in which genes shape our world, influencing how each person both creates and responds to the environment around them.

This thought-provoking book challenges traditional religious beliefs, exploring how the principles of cosmic evolution can provide a fulfilling and meaningful framework for understanding our place in the universe.

Well-meaning physicians, parents, and even scientists today often spread misinformation about what biology can and can't tell us about our bodies, minds, and identities. In this accessible, myth-busting book, geneticist Shoumita Dasgupta draws on the latest science to correct common misconceptions about how much of our social identities are actually based in genetics.

A.I. or - Thinking outside the box! Mind Control is the first Owner's Manual that will help usher in a new species of human being, a species who will respect their home planet and put it first above all other priorities. I call him 'Homo Planetae' or Man of the Planet. Homo Sapiens or the Wise Man is no longer viable since it is this species that has brought us to the edge of extinction and the total destruction of this planet's habitat - something no other creature in history has been so careless and greedy to do. We did that.
