Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Davidson's book offers a fascinating look into the theories surrounding human infancy and development. The recapitulation theory, which posits that human embryos go through stages that mirror the developmental stages of their evolutionary ancestors, is explored in depth. This book is perfect for anyone interested in developmental psychology or the history of scientific thought.

Download or read book Early Creationist Journals written by Ronald L. Numbers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-10-17 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1995, Early Creationist Journals is the ninth volume in the Creationism in Twentieth-Century America series, reissued in 2021. The book is a concise primary source collection containing a selection of journal articles from the early twentieth century outlining discoveries in biology, geology, physiology and archaeology and their relation to Christianity. The aim of the journals was to provide a platform for creationists of the 1920s to voice their theories on new science and how more recent discoveries fit within creationist beliefs, including flood theory. These interesting and unique journals will be of interest to academics working in the field of religion and natural history and provide a unique snapshot into the debates between evolutionists and Christianity during a period of great scientific change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Recapitulation Theory and Human Infancy The strong interest in its biological and anthropological setting which attended the beginnings of the systematic study of childhood in this country has somewhat abated. Among other things practical considerations have drawn attention away to urgent matters of institutional management, while newer and more exact methods, borrowed from the nearby sciences, have been enthusiastically resorted to in the hope of a more immediately serviceable knowledge of childhood than any search into its history could reasonably be expected to yield. Doubtless this change of emphasis is a wholesome one. Education has still to find its most advantageous methods, if indeed it has not yet to delimit its field. It is only right, then, that all the methods which have done excellent work in the sciences should be tested and evaluated for their usefulness in its service. It would be a mistake, however, to regard this departure from biology and anthropology as a final one, and to conclude that education has nothing to learn from these sources. Man's animal heritage is too intimate a part of him, and his historical career too significant of his make-up, ever to justify a neglect of these things on the part of those who propose to mould his present condition and in some measure to direct his future. It may be, too, that some sense of disappointment has figured in this willingness of students of childhood to turn in new directions.

Download or read book The Recapitulation Theory and Human Infancy written by Percy Davidson and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A volume of one hundred five pages, presenting the arguments pro and con on the Recapitulation or Culture Epoch Theory. If, as the author thinks, the biological interest so far as it relates to the systematic study of childhood "has somewhat abated," this interest would not have decreased had teachers been given the opportunity in such study, furnished by this delightful volume. The introduction is an admirably phrased statement of the problem together with the difficulties in the way of its solution. A genuine service has been rendered by excellent presentation of the excerpts from writings of the leading biologists relative to the facts which are presumed to be at the base of the theory. In addition to the scientific value of the author's work in this direction, he has presented the facts in such form, and with such continuity and with such happiness, that an extremely readable story has been evolved. The chapter on Human Infancy is of great value. The generalizations of John Fiske on the subject have been carefully analyzed and tested, together with the writings of later and more critical authorities, in such a way as to be of very great assistance to anyone wishing to know the thought of the best thinkers on this topic. Dr. Davidson's conclusions are modestly and excellently stated. -Educational Review, Volume 49 [1915]

Download or read book States of Childhood written by Jennifer S. Light and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How "virtual adulthood"--children's role play in simulated cities, states, and nations--helped construct a new kind of "sheltered" childhood for American young people. A number of curious communities sprang up across the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century: simulated cities, states, and nations in which children played the roles of legislators, police officers, bankers, journalists, shopkeepers, and other adults. They performed real work--passing laws, growing food, and constructing buildings, among other tasks--inside virtual worlds. In this book, Jennifer Light examines the phenomena of "junior republics" and argues that they marked the transition to a new kind of "sheltered" childhood for American youth. Banished from the labor force and public life, children inhabited worlds that mirrored the one they had left. Light describes the invention of junior republics as independent institutions and how they were later established at schools, on playgrounds, in housing projects, and on city streets, as public officials discovered children's role playing helped their bottom line. The junior republic movement aligned with cutting-edge developmental psychology and educational philosophy, and complemented the era’s fascination with models and miniatures, shaping educational and recreational programs across the nation. Light’s account of how earlier generations distinguished "real life" from role playing reveals a hidden history of child labor in America and offers insights into the deep roots of such contemporary concepts as gamification, play labor, and virtuality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both the Nazis and the Communists seized upon survival of the fittest theory in order to justify their wars and genocides. Was the science as bad as the morality? the End of Darwinism reports that the history of Darwinism is full of deception, error, and politics: A series of famous biologists have appeared to support Darwin's explanation for biological change while not actually believing in it. Even Thomas Huxley, "Darwin's bulldog," privately rejected Darwin's principles of gradual transformation and survival of the fittest. But Huxley needed the money he could make writing on a controversial topic, and he had a grudge against the church. Huxley boasted that, against the church, evolution was his "Whitworth gun," an advanced firearm of the time. Textbooks have been infested with phony examples of natural selection. Most popular has been Darwin's explanation for the height of the giraffe. This is an absurd mistake stemming from the English scientist's ignorance of giraffes and their feeding habits. Nevertheless, it has been published for nearly 140 years--so desperate are the Darwinists for evidence. Another textbook falsehood more than a hundred years old is the claim of gills on the human embryo. Few biologists have the nerve to go against the science establishment by criticizing Darwinism in public. However, Lynn Margulis, the world's leading authority on microbial evolution, notes the lack of evidence and calls Darwinism a "religious sect." Ever since Charles Darwin was alive, mathematicians have criticized his theory as nonsensical. In 1966 a big international conference pitted mathematicians against leading evolutionary biologists. In 1980 a conference of 160 biologist decided that Darwinism does not explain major evolutionary events, but in order to thwart the creationists, the biologists organized an amazingly effective cover-up.
