Matt Ridley Quote

Az, hogy ez a könyv kifejezetten egy faj helyzetével foglalkozik - az emberi fajéval -, semmit nem jelent e faj fontosságát tekintve. Persze az ember valóban különleges. A két füle között a bolygó legbonyolultabb biológiai gépezetét hordozza. A komlexitás azonban nem minden, és nem az evolúció célja. Ezen a bolygón minden faj egyedülálló. A páratlanság itt túlkínálatban lévő árucikk.
