Paleofantasy

Zuk's insights question popular beliefs about our evolutionary past and how they influence current food trends. I wonder what motivated her to write this critical perspective.

The book presents strong evidence against many popular ideas, but I was surprised at how much I had accepted uncritically. Did others find their views shifted?

Zuk manages to make topics like genetics and adaptation understandable without oversimplifying. I’m curious about her process for balancing detail with clarity.
