  • Darwin's Doubtby Stephen C. Meyer

    HarperCollins 2013; US$ 21.99

    When Charles Darwin finished The Origin of Species , he thought that he had explained every clue, but one. Though his theory could explain many facts, Darwin knew that there was a significant event in the history of life that his theory did not explain. During this event, the ?Cambrian explosion,? many animals suddenly appeared in the fossil record... more...

  • The Engine of Complexityby John Mayfield

    Columbia University Press 2013; US$ 33.99

    The concepts of evolution and complexity theory have become part of the intellectual ether permeating the life sciences, the social and behavioral sciences, and more recently, management science and economics.

  • Denialby Ajit Varki; Danny Brower

    Grand Central Publishing 2013; US$ 12.99

    The history of science abounds with momentous theories that disrupted conventional wisdom and yet were eventually proven true. Ajit Varki and Danny Brower's "Mind over Reality" theory is poised to be one such idea-a concept that runs counter to commonly-held notions about human evolution but that may hold the key to understanding why humans evolved... more...

  • Probably Approximately Correctby Leslie Valiant

    Basic Books 2013; US$ 26.99

    We have effective theories for very few things. Gravity is one, electromagnetism another. But for most things?whether as mundane as finding a mate or as major as managing an economy?our theories are lousy or nonexistent. Fortunately, we don?t need them, any more than a fish needs a theory of water to swim; we?re able to muddle through. But how do... more...

  • Human Social Evolutionby Kyle Summers; Bernard Crespi

    Oxford University Press, USA 2013; US$ 25.99

  • Trying Biologyby Adam R. Shapiro

    University of Chicago Press 2013; US$ 30.00

    In Trying Biology , Adam R. Shapiro convincingly dispels many conventional assumptions about the 1925 Scopes “monkey” trial. Most view it as an event driven primarily by a conflict between science and religion. Countering this, Shapiro shows the importance of timing: the Scopes trial occurred at a crucial moment in the history of biology... more...

  • Evolvedby Maximilian Werner; John Alcock

    Torrey House Press 2013; US$ 15.95

  • Scatter, Adapt, and Rememberby Annalee Newitz

    Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group 2013; US$ 26.95

    In its 4.5 billion?year history, life on Earth has been almost erased at least half a dozen times: shattered by asteroid impacts, entombed in ice, smothered by methane, and torn apart by unfathomably powerful megavolcanoes. And we know that another global disaster is eventually headed our way. Can we survive it? How? As a species, Homo sapiens... more...
