Anotace knihy

Evolution is not merely the process that ruled the rise and fall of the dinosaurs, it also happens so quickly and frequently that it changes how all of us live our lives. Drugs fail because diseases like HIV and tuberculosis evolve in a matter of months, sidestepping pharmacology. Insects adapt and render harmless the most powerful of pesticides in a matter of years, not centuries. While the ecological impact of human technology has been well publicized, the evolutionary consequences of antibiotic and antiviral use, insecticide applications, and herbicide bioengineering have been largely unexplored. In this work Stephen R. Palumbi examines practical and critical aspects of modern evolution with a simple, yet forceful style that contains a sense of urgency and a sense of humour.
