Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this seminal work, renowned American biologist Ralph Vary Chamberlin offers a comprehensive overview of the theory of organic evolution and its significance in the natural world. He draws on decades of research to provide a clear and accessible account of this key scientific concept, and offers insights into its ongoing impact on our understanding of life.

This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpts from the beginning of the SUMMARY. IN this summary I shall in general pursue a course the reverse of that which my main work follows.* I shall proceed from the primitive, unorganized condition of matter and endeavor to show how organized micellar substance has arisen in it, and how, from this micellar substance, organisms with their manifold properties have arisen. Since such a synthesis of organisms out of known forms of matter and force is still far removed from a conclusion strictly in accord with physical law, the process becomes comprehensible and obvious only by exact knowledge of the discussion that has preceded. Although the synthetic method reveals more clearly the weaknesses of the theory than do analytic investigations, yet I considered it helpful to make this presentation in order to give a clearer idea of the mechanico-physiological theory, and at the same time to test its worth. I. FORMATION OF UNORGANIZED BODIES (CRYSTALS). When separated and promiscuously moving molecules of any substance in solution or in a melted condition pass into the solid form by reason of removal of the causes of separation and motion (warmth or solvent), they arrange themselves into solid masses impermeable to liquids. These minute bodies grow by accretion, and "when molecular forces are permitted to act undisturbed, assume the regular outer form and inner structure of crystals. The number of crystals, their size, changes of form and growth, all depend on external conditions. 2. FORMATION OF LIVING ORGANIZED (MICELLAR) BODIES. Certain organic compounds, among them albumen, are neither soluble, despite their great affinity for water, nor are they fusible, and hence are produced in the micellar form. These compounds are formed in water, where the molecules that arise immediately adjoining each other arrange themselves into incipient crystals, or micella;. Only such of the molecules as are formed subsequently and come in contact with a micella contribute to its increase in size, while the others, on account of their insolubility, produce new micellae. For this reason the micellae remain so small that they are invisible, even with the microscope... ...3. SPONTANEOUS GENERATION. LIFE. GROWTH. If molecular forces are so combined in an inorganic substratum that spontaneous formation of albumen takes place, then by the combination of the micellse the primordial plasma masses of spontaneous generation are given. Within these plasma masses the production of albumen goes on more easily under the influence of their molecular forces than in the liquid without. Hence the compounds present in the organic substratum and capable of forming albumen enter preferably into the masses of plasma, and by intussusception of micellse of albumen, cause growth. Here life exists in its simplest form. (See page 47.) Spontaneous generation presupposes the origin of plasma-micella from molecules, and hence cannot be brought about by solutions of albumens or peptones, since these are micellar solutions.....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Theory of Organic Evolution Huxley tells us, in his Monograph on the Crayfish, that "Common-sense is science exactly in so far as it fulfils the ideal of common-sense; that is, sees facts as they are, or at anyrate without the distortion of prejudice, and reasons from them in accordance with the dictates of sound judgment. And science is simply common-sense at its best, that is rigidly accurate in observation and merciless to fallacy in logic."

Download or read book Evolution written by David Zeigler and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution: Components and Mechanisms introduces the many recent discoveries and insights that have added to the discipline of organic evolution, and combines them with the key topics needed to gain a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of evolution. Each chapter covers an important topic or factor pertinent to a modern understanding of evolutionary theory, allowing easy access to particular topics for either study or review. Many chapters are cross-referenced. Modern evolutionary theory has expanded significantly within only the past two to three decades. In recent times the definition of a gene has evolved, the definition of organic evolution itself is in need of some modification, the number of known mechanisms of evolutionary change has increased dramatically, and the emphasis placed on opportunity and contingency has increased. This book synthesizes these changes and presents many of the novel topics in evolutionary theory in an accessible and thorough format. This book is an ideal, up-to-date resource for biologists, geneticists, evolutionary biologists, developmental biologists, and researchers in, as well as students and academics in these areas and professional scientists in many subfields of biology. Discusses many of the mechanisms responsible for evolutionary change Includes an appendix that provides a brief synopsis of these mechanisms with most discussed in greater detail in respective chapters Aids readers in their organization and understanding of the material by addressing the basic concepts and topics surrounding organic evolution Covers some topics not typically addressed, such as opportunity, contingency, symbiosis, and progress

Download or read book A Mechanico Physiological Theory of Organic Evolution written by Carl Nägeli and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thought-provoking book, readers are introduced to the controversial ideas of Swiss botanist Carl Nägeli. Nägeli's work on cell division and pollination led him to reject natural selection as the driving force of evolution and instead propose an "inner perfecting principle" known as orthogenesis. He also introduced the concept of the 'idioplasm,' which he believed was the hypothetical transmitter of inherited characters. Despite Nägeli's influence on the field of genetics, his ideas were ultimately rejected by the scientific community. This book provides a fascinating look into the mind of a scientist whose theories challenged the prevailing views of his time.
