An inquisitive, expansive and fascinating exploration of how humans have, in changing the world, changed ourselves Other species adapt to their environments; we alone create ours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver generations, we have remade the world to suit ourselves - using improved knowledge and technology to confront the traditional scourges - and for the most part we enjoy prosperity beyond the dreams of our ancestors. What's more, in changing our world, we have also reshaped the human phenotype - the interaction between genes and environment that moulds our bodies and minds. The results can be seen in the streets of our post-industrial cities. We are taller and heavier, and live longer. We think and behave differently, and die from once-rare diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Available from Whimsy and Wonder with New Zealand delivery or Christchurch pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43891397722148,"sku":"B9780141984988","price":36.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/2253\/5460\/files\/penguin-random-house-the-species-that-changed-itsel-book.jpg?v=1785750556","url":"https:\/\/whimsyandwonder.co.nz\/products\/the-species-that-changed-itsel","provider":"Whimsy \u0026 Wonder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
