      The Future of Human Evolution provides a discussion of how cultural, biological and microevolutionary (drift, selection, and mutation) pressures might affect our future as a species. The book is split into twelve chapters, beginning with evolutionary forecasting, and gene and culture coevolution. It then discusses life expectancy and population growth, followed by chapters on mutation rates, climate change and diet. This book also explores artificial selection and ‘designer babies’, trans-humanism and artificial intelligence (machine-human symbiosis), inequality and the colonization of space. The Future of Human Evolution serves as a valuable resource for both researchers and students studying human evolution and human population genetics, as well as non-academics with an interest in human evolution.
