Evolution Now

Více o knize

Focusing on the evolution of scientific thought, the book traces the transition from the belief in the spontaneous generation of life to Darwin's revolutionary ideas on species change. It details Darwin's geological background and his shift to biology, while also integrating modern insights into human evolution and the Out of Africa theory. The author challenges prevailing beliefs, such as the K-Pg extinction event and the evolutionary relationship between eukaryotes and akaryotes. Concluding with a Popperian perspective, it emphasizes the ongoing quest for knowledge in evolutionary science.
