    About this ebook

    Have you ever been asked, "Can you give just one example of a mutation where information is added to the genome?"
    The answer is very straightforward. The reason for someone to ask that very question while believing that it is a sensible question, they have to have no understanding of the theory of evolution, and specifically, what genetic information is. To give an answer to someone of such a disposition is not a simple task by a long shot. This booklet is for those of you who are willing to learn the basics of genetic information and how it changes over time throughout the process of evolution. Here I will tackle this very complex field of evolutionary biology and explain it in an easy to understand format using analogies from our everyday lives.
