A new book by renowned biologist and sociologist Edward Wilson, a leading Harvard University scientist and Pulitzer Prize winner who is often called the heir to the great Darwin, summarizes the author's previous works and research.Where do we come from? Who are we? Where are we going? Edward Wilson has produced a remarkably powerful, lucid, and passionate work that answers these three fundamental questions of religion, philosophy, and science, while fundamentally rethinking the theory of evolution and placing family and group selection as the primary driving forces of evolution. Wilson argues that history makes no sense without backstory, and backstory makes no sense without biology. By demonstrating that the sources of morality, religion, and creativity are fundamentally biological in nature, Wilson gives us the clearest and most understandable explanation of the origins of man and the reasons that led to our dominance of the Earth's biosphere.
