A concept with deep impact on past, present, and future life
One of our in-laws is firmly convinced that evolution is just a modern fairy tale and never happened. Most scientists, however, believe that this is one of the most fruitful theories of science. Evolution provides insights into the earth's past history and holds deep significance for present and future trends - like the emergence of new, drug-resistant disease germs.
As we were writing the books of this series, we were continually struck by how interrelated the basic science concepts are. Evolution, for example, is closely linked with plate tectonics, as well as photosynthesis, food chains, symbiosis, clocks and rhythms, weather and climate, and even energy. Writing the Science Concepts books expanded and deepened our view of the world, and we hope that they will also prove mind-expanding for our readers.
