Evolution Gone Wrong? Why Our Bodies Work (or Don't!) ~ with ALEX BEZZERIDES

Evolution is a marvel, but - bad backs? Crooked teeth? Allergies? What gives?

ALEX BEZZERIDES is a professor of biology at Lewis-Clark State College in Idaho, where he teaches a wide range of biology classes, from human anatomy and physiology to entomology. He has a bachelor’s degree in biology and a PhD in neurobiology and behavior.

MARK from Evolution Soup discusses Alex's new book 'Evolution Gone Wrong: The Curious Reasons Why Our Bodies Work (Or Don't)', delving into why the evolutionary process rewarded us with successes as well as lumping us with some pretty annoying failures!
