Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Darwinism to-Day: A Discussion of Present-Day Scientific Criticism of the Darwinian Selection Theories, Together With a Brief Account of the Principal Other Proposed Auxiliary and Alternative Theories of Species-Forming This book is written for the sake of presenting simply and concisely to students of biology and to general readers the present-day standing of Darwinism in biological science, and to outline for them the various auxiliary and alternative theories of species-forming which have been proposed to aid or to replace the selection theories. Our actual knowledge of the factors and mechanism of organic evolution and our hypotheses and theories which serve to fill in the present gaps in this knowledge have been greatly added to and modified in the last few years. Much that the general reader includes in his conception of organic evolution, based on his reading of Darwin and Wallace and Spencer, has been materially modified and some of it proved untenable by modern investigation; while much which had no place in this earlier general understanding of evolutionary method and process may now be confidently added to it. The present time is one of unprecedented activity and fertility both in the discovery of facts and in attempts to perceive their significance in relation to the great problems of bionomics. Both destructive criticism of old, and synthesis of new hypotheses and theories, are being so energetically carried forward that the scientific layman and educated reader, if he stand but ever so little outside of the actual working ranks of biology, is likely to lose his orientation as to the trend of evolutionary advance. Precisely at the present moment is this modification of the general point of view and attitude of philosophical biologists unusually important and far-reaching in its relation to certain long-held general conceptions of biology and evolution.

OTHER THEORIES OF SPECIES-FORMING AND DESCENT (CONTINUED): AUXILIARY THEORIES (CONTINUED). Isolation Theories.--The varying importance attributed by different biologists to the theories explaining means and results of isolation is notable. While by thoTsda DEGREESon" f some the species-forming influence of isolation faotor imperial- is held to be as effective as selection itself, -- forming. some deem it more effective, --others attach but little importance to it, indeed see no effects of consequence. These latter men are likely to be morphologists, cytologists, and laboratory men generally; the former are systematists, students of distribution, and so-called field naturalists. Thus Delage, who gives much attention in his general discussion of the theories of heredity, variation, and species-forming to many purely speculative theories of the ultimate structure and behaviour of protoplasm, and of the mechanism of heredity, dismisses the whole subject of geographic and topographic isolation with a couple of superficial paragraphs, in which he presents a singularly fallacious statement of what the effects of isolation should be. On the other hand the veteran German world-voyager and exploring naturalist, Moritz Wagner, established long ago, on the basis of his observations and deductions, a "law" of species-forming by migration and consequent isolation, which in his mind makes the natural selection theory superfluous. And Henry Seebohm in a discussion of Romanes's 1 formulation of the principle of physiological selection, says: "So far as is known, no species (of birds) has ever been differentiated without the aid of geographical isolation, though evolution may have gone on to an unknown extent; and, so far as we can judge, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on his investigation of over one hundred mid-Victorian British newspapers and periodicals, Alvar Ellegård describes and analyzes the impact of Darwin's theory of evolution during the first dozen years after the publication of the Origin of Species. Although Darwin's book caused an immediate stir in literary and scientific periodicals, the popular press largely ignored it. Only after the work's implications for theology and the nature of man became evident did general publications feel compelled to react; each social group responded according to his own political and religious prejudices. Ellegård charts the impact of this revolution in science, maintaining that although the idea of evolution was generally accepted, Darwin's primary contribution, the theory of natural selection, was either ignored or rejected among the public.

Download or read book The Post-Darwinian Controversies written by James R. Moore and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1981-10-30 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Post-Darwinian Controversies offers an original interpretation of Protestant responses to Darwin after 1870, viewing them in a transatlantic perspective and as a constitutive part of the history of post-Darwinian evolutionary thought. The impact of evolutionary theory on the religious consciousness of the nineteenth century has commonly been seen in terms of a 'conflict' or 'warfare' between science and theology. Dr. Moore's account begins by discussing the polemical origins and baneful effects of the 'military metaphor', and this leads to a revised view of the controversies based on an analysis of the underlying intellectual struggle to come to terms with Darwin. The middle section of the book distinguishes the 'Darwinism' of Darwin himself amid the main currents of post-Darwinian evolutionary thought, and is followed by chapters which examine the responses to Darwin of twenty-eight Christian controversialists, tracing the philosophical and theological lineage of their views. The paradox that emerges - that Darwin's theory was accepted in substance only by those whose theology was distinctly orthodox theology and of other evolutionary theories with liberal and romantic theological speculation.
