Description
The Unselfish Genome: How Darwin and Dawkins Missed the 2nd Half of the Theory of Evolution Reveals the Hormones That Control Human Aging. A groundbreaking new look at the mysteries of evolution, this book explores the unexplained aspects of human aging and sex. The conventional wisdom of the Selfish Gene paradigm, which began with Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, is challenged by new research on the role of hormones in controlling human aging. The author reveals shocking conclusions about the "good" and "bad" hormones that dominate our lives, and how they can be reversed. The book delves into the evolution of sex and aging, showing how these traits serve as defenses against predation. It also examines the role of homosexuality as a mechanism for birth control, and how it relates to the evolution of predation. With a unique blend of humor and scientific insight, this book offers a fresh perspective on the most pressing questions in evolutionary biology.
