What if human progress isn’t evolution—but decay?
In Atrophy, Homo Moronis Megagluteus, Üner Beköz takes readers on a sharp, witty journey through the story of how we became what we are today—and what we may soon become. From the dream of big-headed geniuses to the age of shrinking minds and growing egos, Beköz explores how technology, vanity, and comfort have reshaped the human body and spirit.
Blending humor, science, and social insight, this book asks unsettling questions about intelligence, identity, and the price of modern life. With vivid imagination and biting irony, Atrophy, Homo Moronis Megagluteus looks at a future where humanity’s greatest achievement might also be its downfall.
A bold and thought-provoking reflection on who we were, who we are, and who we are becoming.
