 * Define bet-hedging both colloquially and scientifically
 * Introduce the different categories of bet-hedging
 * History of theoretical development
 * Explanation of the basic theory behind bet-hedging and how it arises in a population (similar to the current ‘The evolution of bet hedging’ section), mention it being tied in to unstable environments
