Human evolution: The astounding new story of the origin of our species
Forget the simple out-of-Africa idea of how humans evolved. A huge array of fossils and genome studies has completely rewritten the story of how we came into being.

When our evolutionary ancestors first crawled onto land, their brains only half-filled their skulls
‘Tetrapods’ were the first fish to evolve lungs and walk onto land. They were also our ancestors. Now, a new study sheds light on the size and shape of these unique animals’ brains.

Israeli researchers offer new theory on human brain evolution: We were hungry
Archaeologists suggest that as supplies of large animals declined through hunting, early Homo erectus developed the smarts needed to catch smaller, harder-to-trap prey

150 years ago today the bearded wonder Charles Darwin had a crack at explaining himself and his species by publishing The Descent of Man. It is a more interesting book than people who have not read it... View More
Darwin’s theory of agency: back to the future in evolutionary science? | OUPblog
Was Darwin a one-trick pony? The scientists who most laud him typically cite just one of his ideas: natural selection. Do any know that his theory of evolution—like his take on psychology—was drawn fr...

Scientists create a framework to test the predictions of biological optimality theories, including evolution
Evolution adapts and optimizes organisms to their ecological niche. This could be used to predict how an organism evolves, but how can such predictions be rigorously tested?
