Discover the surprising parallels between human and insect agriculture in “The Convergent Evolution of Agriculture in Humans and Insects.” This groundbreaking book explores how independent evolutionary pressures have led to remarkably similar farming strategies in humans and diverse insect species. Delve into quantitative analyses comparing agricultural practices, understand the evolutionary conflicts that shape farming systems, and examine detailed case studies of agriculture in termites, beetles, and ants. “The Convergent Evolution of Agriculture in Humans and Insects” offers a unique synthetic perspective, revealing the universal mechanisms driving agriculture across species and fostering a new field of evolutionary biology. Essential reading for anyone fascinated by the deep history of food production.
