    Bob Berwick & argue that a crucial step in evolution of human can now be pinpointed to the appearance of a single new, but simple, computational operation (response to & )

    Evolution of : not as simple as Berwick & have claimed. & show that the jump from the atomicity of Merge to a single-mutation scenario is not valid, so can't be used to justify such a theory

    Animals can evolve sexually selected weapons, often linked to nutritional status. This study shows that just one of the broad-horned flour beetle's five -like peptides specifically regulates mandible weapon growth

    Life as a editor is more exciting than some might think. See thread below re & ' dissing of Berwick & 's "Why Only US"... & Berwick/Chomsky's reply Thanks to all authors & reviewers for keeping it clean!
