In this episode we discuss what evolution is: the change of heritable characteristics in a population over time. We then understand why evolution operates on a population instead of the species, and then walk through the four forces which drive the evolutionary process. Namely natural selection, mutation, gene flow, and genetic drift.
Ideas and Consequences
Ideas and Consequences will be divided into several epochs, the first of which is human nature. We are currently exploring evolution, after which we will dive into culture, morality, reason, and then finally sexuality.
