…discussing david raup's book on extinction and randomness in evolutionary theory
“He ends up writing this book, which I have right here. Extinction, bad genes or bad luck? Oh, question mark. And to Ralph, the answer was it's both. Like you can't discount fitness. But when it comes to extinction, there's so much other stuff happening.”
