Publisher's Synopsis
The Global Superorganism explores in a unique and fresh way how new scientific findings can be incorporated into a refined comprehensive theory of Evolution. When Darwin devised his brilliant idea of Evolution in 1859, he explicitly stated that the mechanism driving Evolution is only so long considered to be random chance mutation until the true mechanism was discovered. Nobel-prize winning Barbara McClintock found the genome to contain gene editing tools, transposable elements, in the 1940s (!), but their role in evolution has not yet been fully considered. Until now. The Global Superorganism incorporates new findings of biocommunication, genome editing tools and biological data processing into a new and enhanced theory of Evolution.
