Inside Vogue1859 di David Quammen, Vogue Italia settembre 2020Vogue Italia di settembre, issue speciale per le cento copertine, raccoglie la riflessione sul senso dei numeri di alcuni scrittori. David Quammen ha scelto come numero significativo 1859, che “rappresenta uno spartiacque nella storia umana. Perché è l’anno in cui Charles Darwin pubblicò la sua opera più importante, L’origine delle specie”. David Quammen è, secondo Nature, “uno di quei rari esempi di giornalisti scientifici che uniscono l’esplorazione con uno speciale talento per la sintesi e la narrazione” ed è autore di quindici libri.

Humans have a long and complex relationship with viruses. Like most living organisms, viruses co-evolved alongside humans for millions of years. The interaction between viruses and mammals has even permanently altered...2020-05-1943 min

The view of evolution that Woese brought truly was a genuine revolution.
