THE AUTHOR FAILS TO EVEN PROVIDE RUDIMENTARY EVIDENCE FOR HIS EXTRAORDINARY CLAIMS
PEDDLING INACCURATE information in the garb of scientific evidence has become increasingly common in recent times. This is even more dangerous for the pursuit of scientific development and the general scientific temperament among people than the random statements about ancient Indian science made at events like the Indian Science Congress. Vir Singh’s book Fertilizing the Universe: A New Chapter of Unfolding Evolution fits into this category.
The book uses Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and other entirely new hypotheses to build a new philosophy about the propagation of life in the universe. He makes a daring attempt of putting the evolution of life on Earth, especially that of humans, at the center of the story of the Universe. From the vantage point of humanity being the climax of evolution on the planet, it explains how life in other star systems and galaxies will exit Earth’s life.

Are we beyond laws of evolution?
WE AS a society are disconnecting from nature. This is a truism for the human species. But how disconnected are we from nature, from where we evolved? On the face of it, this sounds like a philosophical question. Still, if one gets to measure this, which tool to use? Miles Richardson, a professor engaged in nature connectedness studies at the School of Psychology, University of Derby, UK, has published a study that attempts to measure this widening connection between humans and nature. His finding says that human connection to nature has declined 60 per cent since 1800.
