Work type: Talk.

Beyond the Selfish Gene - T0325368944

From babies with three mothers to rapidly improving IQ all over the world, being alive is getting stranger and more exotic by the minute. New developments and discoveries are expanding our view of Darwinian evolution. As the 21st century advances, do we need to enlarge our understanding of how human inheritance works? Can we allow the media, or even children’s textbooks, to talk in a simple-minded way about genetic inheritance? Leading researchers discuss what a sophisticated understanding of inheritance might mean for every aspect of our lives. Speakers: Steven Rose, Professor of Biology, Open University; Eva Jablonka, Professor at the Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas at Tel Aviv University and co-author of Evolution in Four Dimensions.
