Reviews
''Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution". In a brilliant tour-de-force, Brian Villmoare encourages us to shorten Dobzhansky's famous quote by deleting the words 'in biology'.' Volker Sommer, Professor of Evolutionary Anthropology, University College London, 'This sweeping, erudite book will show you how nothing about the past -biological, anthropological, historical, or anything else- makes sense except in the light of evolutionary science. Its breathtaking 5-billion-year perspective will help you think about why almost everything to do with humanity is the way it is.' Daniel E. Lieberman, Professor of Human Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University

Synopsis
Big History seeks to retell the human story in light of scientific advances by such methods as radiocarbon dating and genetic analysis. This book provides a deep, causal view of the forces that have shaped the universe, the earth, and humanity. Starting with the Big Bang and the formation of the earth, it traces the evolutionary history of the world, focusing on humanity's origins. It also explores the many natural forces shaping humanity, especially the evolution of the brain and behaviour. Moving through time, the causes of such important transformations as agriculture, complex societies, the industrial revolution, the enlightenment, and modernity are placed in the context of underlying changes in demography, learning, and social organization. Humans are biological creatures, operating with instincts evolved millions of years ago, but in the context of a rapidly changing world, and as we try to adapt to new circumstances, we must regularly reckon with our deep past., This volume provides a deep, causal view on the forces that have shaped the universe, the earth, and humanity. Anyone who wants to understand the place of humanity in the universe, and how the course of humanity reflects our ancestry, will find this book of value.
