Our genes are hardwired to survive at all cost. Discover how this selfish instinct has evolved life from the first organisms in the primordial soup to all the wonderful complexities of human beings.

From the color of our hair and even down to our seemingly altruistic parental instincts, our genes are acting on their own selfish impulse to conquer and survive. It is this basic drive that determines every behavior and characteristic in each and every living thing on the planet. Richard Dawkins gives an essential guide to genetics, and how life has evolved driven by The Selfish Gene.

You will learn:

· How life began in the primordial soup

· What phenotypes are, and how they ensure the survival of the fittest

· Why a parent's altruistic behaviour might not be as selfless as it seems.

Zitate

  • Nemanja Babichat Zitat gemachtvor 4 Jahren
    Similar to how genes compete for survival, a meme also fights for attention. Just as genes create organisms, memes create entire organizations such as a church centered on the idea of a god. The survival of memes is dependent only on their environment and not on factors outside their environment such as biological evolution. An example of an environment conducive to the survival of a meme can be observed through the internet, where the internet is the environment, and data (such as audio or video) that thrives on the internet is the meme.

    must consider the culture pool to be similar to the gene pool, where the smallest unit of cultural evolution can be referred to as a “meme.”

    contrary to popular belief, evolution does not depend on the organism but rather on a component known as the “gene.” A gene is made up of shorts strands of DNA
