La journaliste et scientifique Cat Bohannon revisite l’histoire traditionnelle de la biologie évolutive en plaçant le corps des femmes en son centre. Et éclaire pour le grand public des questions restées dans l’ombre de la norme « mâle », qui a longtemps prévalu dans la discipline.

"Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution", by Cat Bohannon
"THE REAL ORIGIN OF OUR SPECIES: a myth-busting, eye-opening, landmark account of how humans evolved, offering a paradigm shift in our thinking about what the female body is, how it came to be, and how this evolution still shapes all our lives today."
"Eve is not only a sweeping revision of human history, it’s an urgent and necessary corrective for a world that has focused primarily on the male body for far too long. Picking up where Sapiens left off, Eve will completely change what you think you know about evolution and why Homo sapiens has become such a successful and dominant species."
I learned of this new book during her interview on Morning Joe this morning. Looks like a worthwhile read. I bought it this morning and looking forward to reading it.
