Gregory Cochran

A manifesto for and an example of a new kind of history, a biological history, and not just of the prehistoric era Scientists have long believed that the 'great leap forward' that occurred some 40,000 to 50,000 years ago in Europe marked the end of significant biological evolution in humans. In this stunning account of our evolutionary history, top scholars Gregory Cochran and Henry Harpending reject this conventional wisdom and reveal that the human species has undergone a storm of genetic change much more recently. Human evolution in fact accelerated after civilisation arose, they contend, and these ongoing changes have played a pivotal role in human history. They argue that biology explains the expansion of the Indo-Europeans, the European conquest of the Americas, and European Jews' rise to intellectual prominence. In each of these cases, the key was recent genetic change: adult milk tolerance in the early Indo-Europeans that allowed for a new way of life, increased disease resistance among the Europeans settling America, and new versions of neurological genes among European Jews. Ranging across subjects as diverse as human domestication, Neanderthal hybridization, and IQ tests, Cochran and Harpending's analysis demonstrates convincingly that human genetics have changed and can continue to change much more rapidly than scientists have previously believed. A provocative and fascinating look at human evolution, The 10,000 Year Explosion reveals the ongoing interplay between culture and biology in the making of the human race.

Would you like a clear, simple guide that gives you confidence to preach God's Word? This powerful little book is exactly what you need. Dr. Cochran teaches students how to preach their first sermons. This little book distills the essence of biblical preaching into three achievable tasks. This book is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to preach. The book will also help preachers understand better what their preaching can (and should) accomplish. Students and pastors praise this book as a genuine, practical help for those hoping to preach God's Word faithfully. From a pastor in Scotland to preaching students in southern California, the common review of this book has been, "This was an exceptional book, exactly what I needed to read."

10,000 years of explosionb The shocking fact that the revolution of molecular genetics tells us! A New Controversy in Evolution The mainstream evolutionists, including Steve J. Gould and Ernst Meyer, argued that humans have not experienced any biological changes since 40,000 to 50,000 years ago. But this book, based on the latest scientific theory and evidence, proves that their claims are not true at all. And how the development of civilization influenced human evolution is interestingly explored through a variety of cases sporadically spread across the six continents of the five continents. In particular, he gives a clear answer to why the Ashkenazi Jews have a higher IQ than mankinds average IQ. You may. But this good sound may upset scientists. 10,000 years is a very long time from the human point of view, but in the time of biological evolution, it is a short time to drink a cup of tea. The authors themselves said, “This is an incredibly radical idea. Its like saying that a tree grows noticeably while youre watching. ” For example, creatures that adapt well to the environment, such as horseshoe crabs, stay the same for millions of years. They are literally older than the strong mountains. But man has become a completely different person with a cup of tea. “How is that possible? What has changed? ”The authors respond as if they were waiting. "Theres very, very, very much evidence." If you look into the evidence, it is impossible to say opposite. The evidence here is the results of molecular genetic studies. As everyone knows, molecular-level DNA research has only recently become possible. For hundreds of years, scientists have looked at fossils and studied evolution. Unfortunately, fossils have no way of looking at traces of invisible evolution. Such invisible traces of evolution have been left behind in genes. As if you excavated a gold mine! This is the new evidence that the authors cite.
