With Evolutionary Psychology I and II, Allen D. MacNeill of Cornell University led a thought-provoking series of lectures on why people do the things they do. In Evolutionary Biology I, MacNeill addresses a different side of the coin by examining the biological component, from Charles Darwin's and Gregor Mendel's "dangerous ideas" to contemporary thought leaders and the forming of the modern synthesis of this vital field of study.
