"Evolution"

Adapt or die - this is the most famous law of nature. But how does evolution actually occur? It is too slow to be seen with the naked eye, but evolution is continuously happening around us. Even if you are familiar with key concepts such as variability, natural selection, and the conflict between parents and offspring, understanding them fully requires context. From population to speciation, from polymorphism to evolutionary psychology - this book has everything you need to know. «Evolution in 30 Seconds» opens a laboratory of life to consider the 50 most significant topics that will help you understand everything about the missing links in the origin of species and the process of natural selection over four billion years. Learn all about the development of living organisms at micro- and macro-levels - from genes to geniuses. Mark Fellow, head of the School of Biological Sciences, and Nick Batty, head of the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Reading in the UK. Their combined expertise covers the full diversity of the subject: Professor Batty - in cells, genes, and plants; and Professor Fellow - in ecology, evolution of animals, and intraspecific interactions.

"Biology"

Plants and animals, their life and death may seem quite simple at first glance, but what really happens inside a living organism? Can you explain how the respiratory system works or how plants defend themselves? Why does understanding epigenetics help us fight diseases and how does climate affect extinction?
