Nature pays tribute to the legend
The famous Nature journal joined in the celebrations on Darwin day by releasing a special issue on Charles Darwin life and work . Current issue is a treat for all covering varying aspects like what evolution has done to shape human nature and some of the problems inherent in applying biology to questions about humanity. The issue also contain an essay on Darwin’s pigeons and poetry by his great great grand-daughter Ruth Padel. But my favorite is the “insight” section dealing with natural selection and How the modern scientists built upon the ideas of Darwin .
Insight contains six excellent reviews written by leading scientists from the field like Sean carroll, Neil shubin,Telford, Garhan budd and many others.
