Recenzii
Most of my knowledge on evolution is self-taught and in my own psychology education there was no discussion of evolutionary principles. Dont be like meuse this fantastic book to encourage your university to adopt a course on evolution for every student regardless of their disciplinary background!
To paraphrase Theodosius Dobzhansky, nothing in biology, psychology, development, politics, economics, human health, medicine, and education makes sense except in the light of evolution. If you dont believe this assertion now, you very well may after reading the chapters in this volume edited by David Sloan Wilson and his colleagues. Evolution is for everybody, and this book is especially important for college instructors who would like to convey the excitement and importance of evolutionary theory to their students.
