Richard Dawkins gençlere yönelik olarak Evren, Dünya, canlılar ve diğer birçok konuya ilişkin sorulara bilimle cevap verdiği son kitabı The Magic of Reality'deki "İlk İnsan Kimdi?" adlı bölümde bahsi geçen, gözle görülemeyen evrimi (diğer bir deyişle bakteri ve virüslerdeki kadar hızlı görülmeyen) kavrayabilmemiz için bir düşünce deneyi gerçekleştiriyor. Evrim sürekli devam eden bir süreç. Bu yüzden milyonlarca yıllık bir ağaç üzerinde sadece belli duraklardaki dallara bakarak çeşitli isimler veriyoruz: Homo sapiens (modern insan), Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis gibi... Hepsi bu zincirin bir devamı olduğundan ilk insan kimdi sorusu da anlamını yitiriyor. Önce bebek, sonra çocuk, sonra yetişkin, en sonunda da yaşlanmamız gibi bu kesintisiz süreç hep devam ediyor ve bebeklik, çocukluk vs. diye adlandırdığımız, ancak kendimizde göremediğimiz bu aşamaları fotoğraf karelerine aldığımızda bir ayrım yapabiliyoruz ancak.
Kitap bir yayınevi tarafından henüz Türkçe'ye çevrilme aşamasında.

The National Limousine Association’s Ride Responsibly™ initiative (www.rideresponsibly.org) is back with its third public service announcement starring actress and activist Pamela Anderson. In partnership with Promoting Awareness, Victim Empowerment (PAVE), the PSA highlights the often horrifying lack of accountability maintained by ride-hail services and urges passengers to make themselves aware of the safety standards for these apps and their drivers.
“Terms & Conditions” is a follow-up to Ride Responsibly’s second PSA, “The Signs,” which was released in January and called attention to the vast number of sexual assaults reported against drivers. This time, the video shows Pamela Anderson as a passenger of a ride-hail vehicle. Her driver quickly and abruptly reads her a list of terms that she is agreeing to by using the service. Much of the language shocks and disturbs Pam as she is informed that these apps are not responsible or liable for a passenger’s well-being. The terms used for this PSA were taken, in reality, directly from a popular ride-hailing app.
