Review: The 10,000 Year Explosion by Gregory Cochran and Henry Harpending
ARE humans still evolving? It's a controversial and exciting question. And according to Gregory Cochran and Henry Harpending, the answer is a resounding "yes". Rebelling against the received wisdom of many evolutionary biologists who insist that we have reached an evolutionary plateau, the authors argue that not only are we still evolving, but also that we are actually evolving at an accelerating rate.
