  • INTERSECTIONAL EVOLUTION: Unlike pretty much every other book about evolution, author Yolanda Ridge takes an intersectional approach to the topic. She goes beyond a purely scientific look to show how class, the difference between urban and rural living, and other human factors affect evolution.
  • FASCINATING EXAMPLES: Chapters feature interesting examples of how living things have evolved such as the rhino, who is evolving to be born without a horn to avoid poaching, therefore living longer.
  • FAMILIAR TOPIC, NEW APPROACH: Most books also frame evolution as a thing of the past-Evolution Interrupted shows how evolution is happening today.
  • INTERCONNECTIVITY: Emphasis on the concept of interconnectivity and allows the reader to position themselves within the web of life--in line with current thinking from climate activists and conservationists on how to teach sustainability.
  • YOUTH ACTIVISM FOCUS: Each chapter includes a feature on a young person or a youth organization making a concrete difference.
  • EDUCATOR'S GUIDE: Free resources will be available for download at AnnickPress.com, and in Edelweiss, Bookmanager, CataList.
