Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Evolution once had time. Now the planet may not.Across coral reefs, forests, seagrass meadows, coastlines, and warming oceans, life is being forced to adapt at a speed natural selection was not built to guarantee. Heat waves arrive faster. Diseases move into new ranges. Droughts last longer. Seas warm, acidify, and rise. For many species, the old promise that "nature will adapt" is no longer enough.Faster Than Evolution explores one of the most urgent scientific frontiers of our time: conservation genomics.Scientists are now reading the hidden genetic variation inside threatened species and asking a difficult question: can we help life survive the world we are creating? In some places, that means identifying coral lineages that tolerate warmer water. In others, it means choosing climate-resilient seeds for future forests, protecting genetic diversity before it disappears, or considering assisted gene flow, selective breeding, and carefully governed restoration strategies.But this is not a simple story of technology saving nature.Genomic conservation raises profound questions. Who decides which species receive help? What happens when humans move genes, organisms, or populations across landscapes? How do we balance urgency with humility? And how do we make sure genetic intervention does not become an excuse to keep destabilizing the climate?Written for intelligent general readers, this narrative science book moves through reefs, forests, laboratories, restoration projects, policy debates, and ethical crossroads to show how conservation is changing. It explains the science clearly without hype and follows the central tension with care: evolution is still powerful, but in a rapidly warming world, it may not always be fast enough.This book is for readers interested in climate change, biology, genetics, biodiversity, environmental science, conservation, and the future of life on Earth.The future may not be divided cleanly between natural and artificial. The deeper question is whether humans can develop wisdom equal to their power. This item is printed on demand.
