WHY GENES ARE NOT SELFISH AND PEOPLE ARE NICE Colin Tudge

by: Colin Tudge




Those of us who have real concerns about the future of the planet will find the contents of this book both fascinating and encouraging. Rationalist scientific thinking may seem to suggest that our inherently selfish DNA means we re doomed to destroy both the planet and ourselves along with it, but this experienced author and thinker argues there's another way of looking at the facts - as he presents the idea that in fact life is fundamentally co-operative, all creatures are basically good, and there s more to the stuff of the universe than meets the eye! Interested especially in agriculture, evolution, genetics and the philosophy of science, Colin's work is driven by environmental concerns and the desire to change our collective attitude towards the natural world. His message is one of real hope, and a powerful call to action to rethink our assumptions and our approach to living.
