Evolution Ended - Paperback

by J. J. Jerome (Author)

Mankind is in the midst of an enormous transition...Human evolution has always been a function of our strength, our smarts, and our ability to attract a mate. But modern technologies are now so advanced that we no longer need any of these things to survive. Evolution Ended uses evolutionary theory and brain science to explain how everything from the decline of the nuclear family to political extremism is a result of society's transition from survival of the fittest to dependence on technology.

This fascinating book weaves history, science, and popular culture to explore how we arrived at our current state and the surprisingly hopeful biological, social, sexual, and political implications of an AI-powered world that is changing far faster than we can evolve. Evolution Ended tells the story of how technology replaces the brutality of survival of the fittest with a new paradigm - one where we are not defined by our DNA but by our dreams.
