Whether skeptic or fan this is the most provocative and entertaining book to date about evolution. How one bacteria cell became a sentient human in 3.5 billion years is beyond a bizarre journey. Even so, our emotional and psychological trajectory eclipsed our physical evolution. How we transformed from violent to civilized can be summed up with a childhood joke: we went to a fight and a hockey game broke out. Next, the book becomes a passionate, moving, 20th century American novel, that spans 4 wars and 4 generations of a family, resulting in the sense of life we have today. The plot twists and kinks will have you spellbound; what's a science book on the human dilemma without surprise, sadness, laughter and art? The stars of this true story are the women who brought teleology to our random evolution. You will discover how overlooked changes in our human nature caused the rise and fall of imperialism, the shocking truth of how we won the American Revolution and lost in Vietnam, and why we radically changed after 1969. We were trapped for centuries and are evolving new conceptual thought, abstract humor, and bold music, to break out of our very last chain-the hardest one. The eternal conflict between our selfishness and sacrifice will become clear because we learned how to think, then learn, then learned how to teach and love. For a million years we strove to create super-evolved kids and finally . . . we did. Our free will is alive and waiting to be kindled by each individual.
