Description
This wide-ranging exploration reveals how human activity has reshaped our bodies over time. Vybarr Cregan-Reid examines the impact of modern technology on the human form, tracing its evolution from primate to transhuman.
The Anthropocene epoch, marked by humanity's profound influence on the world, is also transforming our biology. As we've altered the environment, so too have we been altering our own bodies and DNA.
PRIMATE CHANGE beautifully dissects the complex architecture of modern human bodies, built over millions of years and now facing unprecedented challenges from modern living.
