Why evolution is more than just a theory: it is a fact
In all the current highly publicized debates about creationism and its descendant "intelligent design," there is an element of the controversy that is rarely mentioned-the evidence , the empirical truth of evolution by natural selection. Even Richard Dawkins and Stephen Jay Gould, while extolling the beauty of evolution and examining case studies, have not focused on the evidence itself. Yet the proof is vast, varied, and magnificent, drawn from many different fields of science. Scientists are observing species splitting into two and are finding more and more fossils capturing change in the past-dinosaurs that have sprouted feathers, fish that have grown limbs.
Why Evolution Is True weaves together the many threads of modern work in genetics, paleontology, geology, molecular biology, and anatomy that demonstrate the "indelible stamp" of the processes first proposed by Darwin. In crisp, lucid prose accessible to a wide audience, Why Evolution Is True dispels common misunderstandings and fears about evolution and clearly confirms that this amazing process of change has been firmly established as a scientific truth.
书名不是很达意,与物种起源相比,没那么晦涩难懂。我是躺在被窝里一口气看完的,挺精彩,配着《达尔文的证据》看,感觉还不错。能够起到增长知识,开阔眼界的作用。当作《物种起源》的导读也是不错的。参考资料很全。我是把他当故事书看的。

评分《啊哈啊哈灵机一动》有一节说,从前有个叫帕斯卡的人(没错就是压强的那个帕斯卡)提出了一个问题,如果一个人对信不信教完全没有idea,觉得圣经可能是对的也可能是错的,那他应该怎么办呢? 一、 他选择不信教,那么 if 圣经是错的,他什么也没得到, else 他会在大审判后下...
评分 评分正如作者所说,这是一部有趣的书,阅读之后简直就是醍醐灌顶如坐春风。这是一部写给演化论反对者的书,更是一部为盲目相信演化论的那些支持者所书写的书,而在演化论几乎罕见敌手的中国,这部书的出版和翻译更是弥足珍贵。 作者首先理清了演化的概念,从化石、基因、生...
废话有点多
评分好书推荐。很多时候我们只知道去支持或者去反对,却并不知道为什么支持为什么反对,不去理解事物的本身是如何,为什么正确为什么错误,以及何处有局限何处又很合理。
