Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution by Cat Bohannon

informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

Firstly, this is an inclusive book, so that was pleasant. I really enjoyed this, the look back at evolutionarily history and how females have driven a lot of the changes in our biology. I do agree with the most critical review on goodreads, that there seems to be a lot of natural selection assumptions that just don't play out. Talking about evolution choosing such and such a trait for future use feels creationist coded and I don't love that. Overall if you take some of the language with a grain of salt this is a really interesting book.
