Discover the origin story of life on this planet in this fascinating exploration of the science of evolution—and why it matters to our future and daily lives. Prosanta Chakrabarty explains evolution in a concise, accessible, and engaging way, emphasizing the importance of understanding evolution in everyday contemporary life. Weaving his own lived experience among discussions of Darwin and the origins of evolutionary thought, Chakrabarty covers key concepts to our understanding of our current condition, including mutation; the spectrum of race, sex, gender, and sexuality; the limitations of ancestry tests; and the evolution of viruses like SARS-CoV-2, the virus at the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic. Offering a contemporary update to classic popular evolution books by Stephen Jay Gould, and Jerry Coyne, Explaining Life through Evolution is not only an illuminating read, but also an essential guide to the kind of scientific literacy needed to face the challenges of our collective future.

The story of four billion years of eight million lives Looking forward to an unputdownable book on that explains life? Well, here it is! Explaining Life Through Evolution opens a window to 4 billion years of 8 million lives that we see in this planet. This book does not simply narrate the story of evolution. It is more than about where we came from. It brings to light who we are. As humans, we naturally focus more on identifying differences between us; no matter how small they are. Prosanta demystifies this notion to emphasize our similarities with each other than many of us are willing to believe. As more and more people take ancestry tests, sending their DNA samples and money to genealogy testing centres, we need to be educated on what the results actually mean, scientifically; and we all have to decide together what it means socially. We should be celebrating the fact that this diversity comes from the same little drops of water and sunlight, each just shining a little differently. Like all species, we are defined by our differences as much as by our similarities. Prosanta encourages us to think of life as being this book, which is always in the making. We are just only seeing the last few pages of each chapter. If you look out on the eight million species that we share this planet with, think of them all being four billion years of evolution. They're all the product of that. Think of us all as young leaves on this ancient and gigantic tree of life, all of us connected by invisible branches not just to each other, but to our extinct relatives and our evolutionary ancestors. Evocative, comprehensive and argumentative, this is a must-read, and reread, a book which will compel you to imagine and reimagine life around us.
