Reni Eddo-Lodge tops Sunday Times chart

Posted on 15/06/2020

The circumstances are conflicting, and it is a clear indictment of the publishing industry that it has taken until 2020 for a black British woman to reach the #1 spot, but we remain immensely proud of Reni and all the work she has done, including – but going much further than – Why I’m No Longer Talking To White People About Race.

We are very proud to announce that Dr Elsa Panciroli`s SURVIVAL OF THE UNFITTEST: A NATURAL HISTORY will be published by @johnmurrays in spring 2025, following an eight-way auction! 🐋🦖🦑

After finding out that she was unable to have biological children, palaeontologist Elsa Panciroli set out to challenge the story we think we know about inheritance and reproduction. Beyond `survival of the fittest` and `the biological imperative` lies a more complex story of evolutionary history - species without their own offspring are not only common, but essential to life. THE UNFITTEST is a fascinating reorientation of how we look at ourselves, our ancestry, and our future - a celebration of the individuals and species who can`t or don`t have children.

Elsa is a Scottish palaeontologist and biologist who studies the early origins and evolution of mammals. She is the author of BEASTS BEFORE US (Bloomsbury Sigma, 2021), praised by the New York Times as `smart, passionate and seditious`, and THE EARTH: A BIOGRAPHY OF LIFE (Quercus, 2022).

She is an Associate Researcher at National Museums Scotland, a Leverhulme Trust Early Career Research Fellow at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, and an EPA Cephalosporin Junior Research Fellow at Linacre College, Oxford.

Here she is pictured with a Smilodon fossil - we are so excited for this book and to represent Elsa`s brilliant work! 🌿🐡🐝
