  The water is rising — and it’s not just the coasts that are changing. Entire nations are sinking, rivers are shifting course, and millions are already on the move. But amid the devastation, extraordinary stories of resilience are emerging. 
  After the Flood takes readers to the front lines of the planet’s most pressing crisis: the global struggle to live with water in an era of unstoppable change. From the engineers building floating cities in the Netherlands to the farmers in Bangladesh reinventing agriculture on flooded land, and the Pacific Islanders fighting to preserve their homelands from beneath the waves — this is a story of ingenuity, defiance, and hope. 
  Blending investigative reporting with deeply human storytelling, Alex Southwick reveals how rising seas are not only redrawing maps, but reshaping what it means to belong, to adapt, and to survive. 
  After the Flood is a haunting and inspiring portrait of a world transformed by water — and the people determined to rise with it.

  Darwin and Theory of Evolution

  In a recent study in 2015 the scientists found remains of biotic life in a few historic rocks, Western Australia, which dated back to 4.1 billion years ago and on July, 2016 the scientists confirmed about 355 genes which were from LUCA of all the living organisms on Earth. 
  Formation, change and loss of species through the evolutionary antiquity of life on Earth are validated by common sets of biochemical and morphological traits, plus shared DNA sequences. These common individualities are like species which share a recent common ancestor and can be used to rebuild a biological tree of life centered on radical connection with the help of fossils and species which still exist. The records from fossils comprise of progress from a biogenic graphite to microbial mat fossils to multicellular organisms. The prevailing arrays of biodiversity have been designed by extinction and speciation. Almost 99% of species which have roamed planet Earth are expected to be extinct. There have been about 10 to 14 million variety of species on Earth and 1.2 million only have been documented. 
  Charles Darwin in the middle of the 19th century had verbalized a scientific theory of evolution by natural selection; his work became famous through this published book ‘On the Origin of Species’(1859). When more offspring are produced which can actually survive is termed as evolution by natural selection; there are three main facts about populacesBehaviors differ among personages with respect to physiology, morphology and behavior.Various behaviors convene diverse rates of endurance and reproduction.Behaviors and traits can be passed down to generations. 
  Therefore in sequential generations members of a certain populace are substituted by offspring of parents better adjusted to endure and breed in the biophysical atmosphere in which natural selection happens. The quality where the procedure of natural selection builds and conserves qualities which are fit for the practical parts they perform is teleonomy. Sexual and natural selection are the only identified source of adaptation but are not the only reason of evolution. Mutation, gene migration and genetic drift are other non-adaptive procedures of evolution. 
  The significance of natural selection as a reason of evolution has been recognized into other disciplines of biology. Earlier detained thoughts of evolution like evolutionism, asorthogenesis and other principles on intrinsic progress contained by the largest-scale drifts in evolution became outdated scientific philosophies. By founding and analyzing postulates, creating mathematical models of theoretical biology and biological philosophies, using observational data and executing experiments in laboratory and field the scientists continue to study various traits of evolutionary biology.
