Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive versus non‐adaptive phenotypic plasticity and the potential for contemporary adaptation in new environments
TL;DR: It is concluded that adaptive plasticity that places populations close enough to a new phenotypic optimum for directional selection to act is the only Plasticity that predictably enhances fitness and is most likely to facilitate adaptive evolution on ecological time-scales in new environments.
Book
Cognitive Load Theory
TL;DR: Cognitive load theory uses evolutionary theory to consider human cognitive architecture and uses that architecture to devise novel, instructional procedures to generate instructional procedures, summarized in this chapter.

Daniel I. Bolnick,Priyanga Amarasekare,Márcio S. Araújo,Reinhard Bürger,Jonathan M. Levine,Mark Novak,Volker H. W. Rudolf,Sebastian J. Schreiber,Mark C. Urban,David A. Vasseur +9 more
TL;DR: Six general mechanisms by which trait variation changes the outcome of ecological interactions are identified and synthesize recent theory and identify several direct effects of trait variation per se and indirect effects arising from the role of genetic variation in trait evolution.

Living with the past: evolution, development, and patterns of disease
Peter D. Gluckman,Mark A. Hanson +1 more
TL;DR: Research in evolutionary biology, developmental biology, and animal and human physiology suggests that environmental processes influencing the propensity to disease in adulthood operate during the periconceptual, fetal, and infant phases of life.
