Description
What makes us human? This question is at the heart of Professor Luke O'Neill's fascinating exploration of our species. From the origin of life to our efforts to stop disease, he delves into what makes us interesting as humans.
Starting with the evolution of our species on the African plains 200,000 years ago, Professor O'Neill examines why we sleep, laugh and enjoy music, and ponders whether we will create superhumans. He also considers how and why we age, if we can escape death, and whether our eventual extinction is inevitable.
With infectious enthusiasm and plenty of laughs along the way, this book is a worthwhile read for curious minds looking to understand what makes us human.
