Upon finishing this book, I am left with more questions than when I first cracked it open. While I have learned so much, evolutionary medicine is a relatively new field and still has much to explore. I am curious how our knowledge from evolutionary medicine can be implemented both by doctors and in the public health sector. How can this knowledge help us better diagnose and treat patients as well as just take care of ourselves on a day-to-day basis.
One question that I have and would love to ask Dr. Moalem is his view on genetic engineering of organisms and how he thinks this would affect the evolutionary process? In accordance with this, how has the presence of sperm banks altered the concept of natural selection in the modern world? Just some things to keep you thinking! Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
