Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines a little-noted contradiction inherent in the two essential elements of Darwin's theory of biological evolution--natural selection and reproduction. Physiologist Stephen Rothman makes the revolutionary claim that the evolution of life's complex and diverse reproductive mechanisms is not the consequence of natural selection. In so doing, he exposes the deepest question possible about life's nature--its reason for being. In meticulously detailed but accessible terms he lays out the crux of the paradox and offers an intriguing solution within a naturalistic framework. In an ostensibly purposeless universe, somehow purposeful life has evolved. For all living things there are two overarching purposes: survival and the creation of new life. Natural selection is about the survival of existing life, but has no interest in life's future, about whether it persists or perishes. By contrast, reproduction is only about the future of life, and has no interest in existing life except as a means to that end. Where do these purposes come from? As Rothman demonstrates, at every level life is wired to react to danger. Counterintuitively, without the danger to its existence, life would not have come into being. As for reproduction, nature's destructive forces drive the creation of new life. Written with great clarity and informed by deep learning, this elegant, thoughtful work tackles some of the most challenging questions raised by the theory of evolution, while calling to mind Darwin's famous words from the conclusion of On the Origin of Species: "There is a grandeur in this view of life."
Download or read book On The Origin of Evolution written by John Gribbin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-06-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of evolution by natural selection did not spring fully formed and unprecedented from the brain of Charles Darwin. The idea of evolution had been around, in various guises, since the time of Ancient Greece. And nor did theorizing about evolution stop with what Daniel Dennett called "Darwin’s dangerous idea." In this riveting new book, bestselling science writers John and Mary Gribbin explore the history of the idea of evolution, showing how Darwin's theory built on what went before and how it was developed in the twentieth century, through an understanding of genetics and the biochemical basis of evolution, into the so-called "modern synthesis" and beyond. Darwin deserves his recognition as the primary proponent of the idea of natural selection, but as the authors show, his contribution was one link in a chain that extends back into antiquity and is still being forged today.

This book was released on 1974 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Course of Evolution by Differentiation or Divergent Mutation Rather Than by Selection AN accident in 1905, and the nature of my official occupation, forced me to work that could be done in spare time with the aid of a pen and a library, and since then I have largely devoted myself to the study of geographical distribution. The dictionary for which I was responsible emphasised in my mind the enormous variety in sizes and distribution of families, genera, and species. All seemed a nearly hopeless confusion. Yet this is not nature's way; her work is always beautifully planned, as Darwin had already shown in the wonderful theory of evolution, whose establishment as a working guide through the intricacies of life was due to him, and gave him his lasting claim to fame. Without a mechanism to operate it, however, few were prepared to make so great a break with what had gone before. In natural selection, Darwin produced an apparently serviceable mechanism, which was so familiar to every one that it had a great appeal, soon resulting in the establishment of evolution in an unassailable position. But during the last fifty years there has always been an underlying feeling that all was not well with natural selection. The writer, though brought up in its strictest school, soon began to feel very doubtful about it, and a few years of experience with tropical vegetation made him realise that selection could not be responsible for evolution. From that time onwards he has never ceased to bring up objections to it, though rarely has any answer to these been attempted. Selection is now no longer required as a support for evolution, and must take its proper place, which is one of great importance, as has been pointed out here and elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural Selection (Evolution): Fact or Fiction? It all started with Darwin. Have you ever wondered what Darwins Origin of Species... really says? Can you come up with logical answers as to why evolution is not fact? Geologist George Schulte provides a careful analysis and logical critique of Darwins book, chapter by chapter. Verifiable facts are separated from fantasy and each issue addressed with surprising results. Darwins Origin of Species...Science or Fantasy? will reveal: The glaring lack of scientific evidence for Darwins theory The case of the missing transitional forms The crucial differences between natural selection and variation within species The evidence that no one kind has ever changed into another kind What the geologic record really says The grave difficulties with Darwins theory in his own words This book will answer questions and settle issues. It is an invaluable resource for students, parents, teachers, and anyone who is interested in separating fact from fictionthe proven from the imagined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Darwinism is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated by the academic community. Not only was Darwin wrong - random events don't build functional codes and natural selection is a circular argument (survival of the fittest; it is the fit that survive), there is no definition of "fit," and circular arguments are meaningless. Moreover, Darwin was a racist, a champion of eugenics, and he believed men to be superior to women in every way. Organisms alter their own DNA in preparation for the next generation and there is nothing random about it. Educators who continue to preach the Darwinian model are, quite simply, lying to their students. In Endocellular Selection: Evolution without Darwin, and the companion volume, What Darwin and Dawkins didn't Know, I present scientific studies pointing to the real origin of species. There are two concepts Charles Darwin presented to the world over 170 years ago, neither of which has been scientifically verified. The first is the concept of random mutations, or alterations to the genetic code, that accumulate, and, over time, result in the creation of new species. There is no science available that indicates how random acts can create codes, without researcher interference, let along the complex DNA code and all the other enzymes, etc. that support it. The second concept is natural selection and the belief that nature can pick and choose a specific sequence of the genetic code thus leading to the survival of the fittest. This sound like a good idea, that is, the survival of the fittest means it is the fit who survive. However, there is no definition of what it means to be "fit," along with the fact this is a circular argument, not allowed in science; it is meaningless. These two concepts, neither of which has been verified by materialistic science (math, physics, and chemistry), are accepted as scientific fact by the academic community. The reasons for this are twofold. First, the Myth of Darwin has been told over and over again, in textbook after textbook, implying it is scientific fact without critical analysis. The second is political and the need to remove any suggestion of an energy guiding the universe and the development of life within; there is a fear of returning to deities and demons. Dr. Rush takes the reader through the research and presents the real science for the origin of species. Basically, through endocellular selection, cells alter their coding in response to environmental issues. Moreover, lifeforms also get new information through symbiosis and hybridization. Lifeforms are not at the mercy of nature; they think and decide in order to stay ahead of Nature and anticipate the future. Life's survival depends on the cell's ability to alter itself, not on chance happenings, that is, random mutations and natural selection. Nature is information only; the cell has to decide what to do with it.
Download or read book Origin of Species Revisited written by Donald Forsdyke and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2001 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major inconsistencies in Darwin's theory of the origin of species by natural selection remained unresolved for over a century until the results of recent research in various genome projects led to the theory's reinterpretation. Reviewing this new information, Donald Forsdyke, a laboratory scientist involved in genome research, wondered whether similar discoveries could have been made a century earlier, by one of Darwin's contemporaries. The Origin of Species Revisited describes his investigation into the history of evolutionary biology and its startling conclusion. The trail led first to Joseph Hooker and Thomas Huxley, who had been both the theory's strongest supporters and its most penetrating critics, and eventually to the Victorian George Romanes and Darwin's young research associate William Bateson. Although these men were well-known, their resolution of the origin of species paradox has either been ignored (Romanes), or ignored and reviled (Bateson). Four years after Darwin's death, Romanes published a theory of the origin of species by means of "physiological selection" that resolved the inconsistencies in Darwin's theory and introduced the idea of a "peculiarity" of the reproductive system that allowed selective fertility between "physiological complements." Forsdyke argues that the chemical basis of the origin of species by physiological selection is actually the species-dependent component of the base composition of DNA, showing that Romanes thus anticipated modern biochemistry. Using this new perspective Forsdyke considers some of the outstanding problems in biology and medicine, including the question of how "self" is distinguished from "not-self" by members of different species. Finally he examines the political and ideological forces that led to Romanes' contribution to evolutionary biology remaining unappreciated until now.
