Evolution in Four Dimensions, revised edition

Evolution in Four Dimensions challenges traditional ideas about heredity and evolution. Eva Jablonka and Marion Lamb explore four "dimensions" in evolution - genetic, epigenetic, behavioral, and symbolic - and argue that they all contribute to variations that can be acted upon by natural selection. The authors show how induced and acquired changes also play a role in evolution, offering a more complex and richer view than the gene-based theory. The text is engaging and accessible, supported by lively illustrations that humorously convey the authors' points.
