Change of Life: How Lynn Margulis Revolutionized Evolution
Click for this Resource!
Maria Theresa Stadtmueller interviews fellow DTJN member and evolutionary geographer James MacAllister about the profound shift in evolutionary thinking championed by his mentor, the late, great biologist Lynn Margulis.
The view that evolution is driven by DNA mutations and survival of the fittest gives way to a systems biology view of radical interdependence, symbiosis, and the consciousness of all life. And wouldn’t that be a way to live?
