Summary
This coming-of-(middle!)-age story asks why evolution favors us humans–especially with all the unnecessary human-things we do: from crazy ambition, insisting on perfect holidays, to owning pets and crazy beauty standards.
Filled with comics and anecdotes, this lighthearted book looks at those born, bred, and buttered in today’s society: typical homosapiens trying to let go of their own childhoods while becoming parents themselves. You know, doing the whole thing of three bedrooms, two baths, and a loft. Cough, a Zoloft.
From an adolescent to an adult, this narrative is filled with anecdotal proof that humans are, well, strange creatures. This book is a must-have for new parents, the young and confused, and those who would like to ask why, why on earth do humans thrive, when nature selects?
