College Level Evolution

By: AudioLearn Content Team

Narrated by: Kevin Charles

AudioLearn's college-level courses presents evolution.

Developed by experienced professors and professionally narrated for easy listening, this course is a great way to explore the subject of college-level evolution. The audio is focused and high-yield, covering the most important topics you might expect to learn in a typical undergraduate Evolution course. The material is accurate, up-to-date, and broken down into bite-sized chapters. There are key takeaways following each chapter to drive home key points and quizzes to review commonly tested questions.

Here are the main topics we’ll be covering:

• Early evolutionary theories
• Natural selection
• The study of taxonomy and phylogeny
• Genetics and genetic variation
• Origin of life
• Major life transitions
• Species and speciation
• Evolution of the human species
• Extinction
• Evolution of reproduction
• Evolution of sociality and populations
• Coevolution
• Evolution and disease
• Future of evolution

We will conclude the course with a 200 question practice test.

Also included is a follow-along PDF manual containing the entire text of this audio course as well as all images, figures, and charts we’ll be discussing.

Now, let’s get started!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good introduction to higher level evolutionary study, but some phrasings are misleading.

The information in this course is correct but some of the ways it is phrased can mislead people. For example, often the phrase "an organism" is used to refer to a whole species. This can confuse some people into thinking that the course is referring to an individual organism rather than a population.
