While plenty of books tell readers how natural selection works, Force of Nature focuses on why understanding it has enormous practical value for reader's lives, right now.
Recent discoveries in fields ranging from molecular and cell biology to ecology and evolution have given rise to 'ecological and evolutionary developmental biology' (or simply, 'eco-evo-devo'), the new science aimed at clarifying how the interplay between genes and environment shapes how organisms develop, interact, and evolve.
