“In 1859, 14 years after the founding of this magazine, Charles Darwin published the most important scientific book ever written. “
Idiotic hyperbole.
The title, too. The “staggering complexity of human evolution.”
Staggering. Not just complex. Staggeringly complex.
As if the ant or bacteria aren’t as “staggeringly complex.”
I’m a fan of ants. Their abilities fascinate me.
But I don’t think they are quite as ‘staggeringly complex’ as human beings are.
