Job categories and human evolution
Whether or not we evolve in biological terms, there is no doubt that we evolve socially.
This is clear from the very fine divisions of labour that can be found among people involved in writing and publishing.
At the Research Cooperative (see forum menu above, or list on the main page) we have indicated rather broad job categories. If your speciality does not fit any of our named categories, then please use one of our general categories ('Assistance' or 'Other'), and give your own name to the work you want to offer or request.
The following list of job categories might be useful, if you are looking for a name.
