Book excerpt: Professor Henry Fairfield Osborn has rendered an important service by the preparation of a concise history of the growth of the idea of Evolution. The chief contributions of the different thinkers from Thales to Darwin are brought into clear perspective, and a just estimate of the methods And results of each one is reached. The work is extremely well done, and it has an added value of great importance in the fact that the author is a trained biologist. Dr. Osborn is himself one of the authorities in the science of Evolution, to which he has made important contributions. He is therefore in a position to estimate the value of scientific theories more justly than would be possible to one who approached the subject from the standpoint of metaphysics or that of literature --President DAVID STARR JORDAN in Chicago Dial. Professor Osborn's treatment of the subject, though largely following in the lines of previous authors, differs from preceding attempts in exhibiting more continuity. He shows more clearly than bas hitherto been done that the growth of the idea of evolution has been continuous from the efforts of the earliest Greeks to the views of the present day. He carefully follows the broad idea of Evolution as a natural law, and traces back the birth and development of each of its parts, while constantly keeping in mind the changing environment of knowledge and prejudice. As a treatise for the advanced student before entering upon special reading and research, it would indeed lie difficult to imagine one more fairly balanced : and the Professor has been singularly successful in emphasizing the salient points --Natural Science.

Book excerpt: Elegant, suggestive, and clarifying, Lewis Thomas's profoundly humane vision explores the world around us and examines the complex interdependence of all things. Extending beyond the usual limitations of biological science and into a vast and wondrous world of hidden relationships, this provocative book explores in personal, poetic essays to topics such as computers, germs, language, music, death, insects, and medicine. Lewis Thomas writes, "Once you have become permanently startled, as I am, by the realization that we are a social species, you tend to keep an eye out for the pieces of evidence that this is, by and large, good for us."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world’s most revered and eloquent interpreter of evolutionary ideas offers here a work of explanatory force unprecedented in our time—a landmark publication, both for its historical sweep and for its scientific vision. With characteristic attention to detail, Stephen Jay Gould first describes the content and discusses the history and origins of the three core commitments of classical Darwinism: that natural selection works on organisms, not genes or species; that it is almost exclusively the mechanism of adaptive evolutionary change; and that these changes are incremental, not drastic. Next, he examines the three critiques that currently challenge this classic Darwinian edifice: that selection operates on multiple levels, from the gene to the group; that evolution proceeds by a variety of mechanisms, not just natural selection; and that causes operating at broader scales, including catastrophes, have figured prominently in the course of evolution. Then, in a stunning tour de force that will likely stimulate discussion and debate for decades, Gould proposes his own system for integrating these classical commitments and contemporary critiques into a new structure of evolutionary thought. In 2001 the Library of Congress named Stephen Jay Gould one of America’s eighty-three Living Legends—people who embody the “quintessentially American ideal of individual creativity, conviction, dedication, and exuberance.” Each of these qualities finds full expression in this peerless work, the likes of which the scientific world has not seen—and may not see again—for well over a century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science of Life: An Outline of the History of Biology and Its Recent Advances This little book bears a big title - The Science of Life - which is synonymous with Biology. Such a title would be unjustifiable did not the position of the book in the Victorian Era Series show that it is intended simply as a historical sketch of the evolution of the science, especially in Darwinian and post-Darwinian days. It is an attempt to illustrate the growth of Biology from an embryonic state of insignificance to a position which is central among the sciences, and full of influence even on the art of life. By reference to particular problems, and occasionally by reference to particular men, I have tried to illustrate impartially what may be called the modern biological attitude. In most of the chapters I have begun the story before the Victorian Era; it did not seem possible to understand the historical position without so doing.

Download or read book From the Greeks to Darwin written by Henry Fairfield Osborn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Greeks to Darwin: An Outline of the Development of the Evolution Idea by Henry Fairfield Osborn is a piece of work that got its final shape and form through various lectures that the author had delivered in the past. The book treads into the well-known territory of Darwinian evolution but provides some significant fillips to glaring lacuna that exists in the theory of evolution. Henry Fairfield Osborn deftly creates linkages between earlier theories on evolution and Darwin's theory to highlight the fact that the path breaking work of Darwin is neither isolated nor devoid of continuity from previous work on the subject. Spread across six chapters, From the Greeks to Darwin: An Outline of the Development of the Evolution Idea revisits the work of evolutionists prior to Darwin and builds on theories and concepts that were hitherto ignored or not understood in their entirety. The notion that ideas are a product of nature is a compelling argument in the book. The author retains the premise of continuity right to the end. There is renewed vigour in understanding the contribution of Greek theorists on the subject of evolution. Henry Fairfield Osborn is decidedly self-effacing as he attributes most of the insight in From the Greeks to Darwin: An Outline of the Development of the Evolution Idea to other scholars. However, with an impressive bibliography and engaging style of writing, this book is perfect for anyone who wishes to understand the history of evolution and the various facets to it.
