Read it.

You're already living it.

Was diabetes evolution's response to the last Ice Age? Did a deadly genetic disease help our ancestors survive the bubonic plagues of Europe? Will a visit to the tanning salon help lower your cholesterol? Why do we age? Why are some people immune to HIV? Can your genes be turned on -- or off?

Joining the ranks of modern myth busters, Dr. Sharon Moalem turns our current understanding of illness on its head and challenges us to fundamentally change the way we think about our bodies, our health, and our relationship to just about every other living thing on earth, from plants and animals to insects and bacteria.

Through a fresh and engaging examination of our evolutionary history, Dr. Moalem reveals how many of the conditions that are diseases today actually gave our ancestors a leg up in the survival sweepstakes. When the option is a long life with a disease or a short one without it, evolution opts for disease almost every time.

Everything from the climate our ancestors lived in to the crops they planted and ate to their beverage of choice can be seen in our genetic inheritance. But Survival of the Sickest doesn't stop there. It goes on to demonstrate just how little modern medicine really understands about human health, and offers a new way of thinking that can help all of us live longer, healthier lives.

Survival of the Sickest is filled with fascinating insights and cutting-edge research, presented in a way that is both accessible and utterly absorbing. This is a book about the interconnectedness of all life on earth -- and, especially, what that means for us.

September 06, 2008 Survival of the Sickest: The Surprising Connection between Disease and Longevity 这本书的名字只是个噱头，并不是书真正的论点，副标题起得更是不着边。此书其实是本介绍进化生物学理论的科普书。我对此一题目向来就有兴趣，因此读来很有收获。作...

按一般的思维逻辑，我们通常把健康认为是一般状态，而生病就是“不幸的事”。但或许一切的疾病，都可能与整个人类的进化发展史有关。在地球上存在的所有生物——包括人类、动物、植物、微生物，都在相互依存进化着。或许我们会惊讶于一些遗传病竟和人类祖先为了生存下来有关。...

揭开寄生虫和他们宿主们的故事 (转)据美国《探索》杂志报道，一谈到“僵尸动物”，人们自然而然会想到科幻大片中的情景，事实上，确实有大量寄生虫可以控制毛虫、蟑螂、螃蟹，甚至人类的大脑,导致自身免疫性神经精神障碍及精神分裂症、性行为改变等。许多情形下，科学家并不...

这本书很有趣。如果本人具备一定的生物学、医学基础，我可能更加明白个中妙处。书里告诉我们：现在我们遇到的很多疾病（血色病、糖尿病、蚕豆病、皮肤癌，只记得这几个）都在漫长的进化进程中曾经帮助过我们，使我们免于灭亡。举个例子：糖尿病“是一组由于胰岛素分泌缺陷和/...
