A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide To The 21st Century

This week, Ashto and Jonesy investigate the tension between our evolutionary history and modern problems and how we can resolve this issue. Although we live through the most flourishing age in human history, we are lifeless and divided. In A Hunter-Gatherer’s Guide to Modern History, evolutionary biologists Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein pinpoint the accelerating rate of change in the modern world as the leading cause that overtakes our brain capacity and body's ability to adapt. In this book, Heying and Weinstein refer to their decades of work exploring earth’s most biodiverse ecosystems to challenge today’s social concerns. This book reveals a science-based perspective you can follow to improve your quality of life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
