    • نبذة مختصرة :
      The article discusses the evolution of human beings and evaluates the future evolutionary patterns that will arise following modern homo sapiens. DNA techniques, which probe genomes, have shown that the rate of evolution in modern humans has actually accelerated since the formation of the species. The author examines how the ease of transformation has allowed for wide mixing of the gene pool. The potential for directing the evolution of our species is examined. INSET: BEYOND HOMO SAPIENS.
