- Worth noticing
- The outline distinguishes evidence-based evolutionary explanations from hypotheses about life’s origins and questions evolution cannot answer about how people ought to behave.
Field notes
The curriculum links familiar topics—natural selection, common ancestry and human origins—to examples such as leaf-mimicking insects and peacock displays. It also gives space to the limits of evolutionary reasoning, including the distinction between explaining how behaviour evolved and deciding how people ought to behave. The page offers a free first episode and says full access begins when the course opens, with the date to be emailed.
