  • Problems of Relative Growth
    Julian S. Huxley
    This detailed study of the different rates of growth of parts of the body relative to the body as a whole represents Sir Julian Huxley’s great contribution to analytical morphology, and it is still a basis for modern investigations in morphometrics and evolutionary biology. Huxley was the first to put the concept of relative growth - or allometry - upon a firm mathematical foun...

  • Extinction
    David M Raup
    In the geological record, there are five major mass extinctions the "Big Five." The most famous happened at the end of the Cretaceous Period, when the dinosaurs and two-thirds of all marine animal species were wiped out, opening the door for the age of mammals and the rise of Homo Sapiens. Using this example as a springboard, David M. Raup leaps into an egaging discussion of th...

  • Social Darwinism in American Thought
    Richard Hofstadter
    Are society’s disadvantaged doomed to get “selected out” of the economic pool? Is America’s social landscape a battleground for “survival of the fittest, where only the strong endure? Once again, biology is being used to explain human development, and right-wing ideologues claim reluctance to intervene in the “natural” workings of the economy. Richard Hofstadter’s now-classi...

  • The Non-Darwinian Revolution
    Peter J. Bowler
    Concise and clearly written, 'The Non-Darwinian Revolution' sets forth a convincing argument for a reappraisal of Darwin’s importance not only for the history of science but for the history of ideas as well. Bowler finds no fault with Darwin’s theory, only with the mistaken notion of its revolutionary effect on nineteenth-century thought. Examining the work of such figures as O...

    Synthesizing studies of parental care in a wide variety of animals, this book is the first attempt to provide general answers to the following important questions: Why does the extent of parental care vary so widely between species? Why do only females care for eggs and young in some animals, only males in others, and both parents in a few? To what extent is parental care adjus...

  • The Causes of Evolution
    John Burdon Haldane
    J.B.S. Haldane (1892-1964), one of the founders of the science of population genetics, was also one of the greatest practitioners of the art of explaining science to the layperson. Haldane was a superb story-teller, as his essays and his children’s books attest. In The Causes of Evolution he not only helped to marry the new science of genetics to the older one of evolutionary t...

  • The Evolution of Complexity by Means of Natural Selection
    John Tyler Bonner
    John Tyler Bonner makes a new attack on an old problem: the question of how progressive increase in the size and complexity of animals and plants has occurred. 'How is it,' he inquires, 'that an egg turns into an elaborate adult? How is it that a bacterium, given many millions of years, could have evolved into an elephant?' The author argues that we can understand this progress...

David Tilman focuses on the universal requiremen...
