Cat Bohannon’s Eve reframes human evolution by placing the female body at the centre of biological history. She dismantles long-held biases in scientific research, revealing how evolutionary stories have been shaped by the male-as-default model. With humour, rigor, and narrative flair, Bohannon guides readers through 200 million years of adaptation, reproduction, and resilience. The book balances big-picture science with engaging case studies that make the evolutionary timeline feel surprisingly accessible. Bohannon’s voice is bold and confident, challenging readers to rethink what they think they know about biology. This is a transformative work that shifts the lens on human origins in groundbreaking ways.
