Species
Stefano Mancuso, Xiana do Teixeiro and Emilio Fonseca
We humans are convinced that we belong to the best, the most developed and complex of all living species. It is inconceivable for us to imagine that a worm, a fungus, or a fern could be better than us even though, in terms of survival as a species, our chances are rather modest. So, if we die out tomorrow, who will care whether we have written The Divine Comedy or Don Quixote?
