In 'The Social Conquest of Earth', Edward O. Wilson poses the fundamental questions about human existence: Where do we come from? What are we? Where are we going? Wilson argues that religion, philosophy, and reflection cannot provide complete answers on their own, and that scientific scholarship is essential to unraveling the enigma of our human condition. Wilson redesigns the history of evolution, drawing on biology and social behavior to demonstrate how group selection can explain the origin of man, his dominance, and his conquest of the planet. A work that invites reflection on the human ascent and its impact on the biosphere, with reflections on art, ethics, language, and religion.

Edward Osborne Wilson was an American biologist, naturalist, ecologist, and entomologist who developed the field of sociobiology.
