Trying Biology
University of Chicago Press 2013; US$ 30.00In Trying Biology , Adam R. Shapiro convincingly dispels many conventional assumptions about the 1925 Scopes “monkey” trial. Most view it as an event driven primarily by a conflict between science and religion. Countering this, Shapiro shows the importance of timing: the Scopes trial occurred at a crucial moment in the history of biology... more...
Omphalos, 1857
Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 365.00Gosse argued that fossils are not really the remains of creatures which existed. God had created the world in six days, but had made it look like it was already ancient, complete with the remains of non-existent pre-historic life. Gosse's work was popular with neither Christians nor evolutionists. more...
Darwin Deleted
University of Chicago Press 2013; US$ 18.00The ideas and terminology of Darwinism are so pervasive these days that it seems impossible to avoid them, let alone imagine a world without them. But in this remarkable rethinking of scientific history, Peter J. Bowler does just that. He asks: What if Charles Darwin had not returned from the voyage of the Beagle and thus did not write On... more...

Vestiges
Langaa RPCIG 2013; US$ 19.95The poems in this collection are adequate, with great lines. The rhythm is stimulating to all the five senses thanks to the use of multiple images. A lot of imagery in Vestiges gives a picture of a war front after a ferocious battle. The objects, animals, and images in the poems disorient and lead the reader to focusing on putting flesh to the bones... more...
Im Fokus: Strategien der Evolution
Springer 2012; US$ 23.99Ist die Evolution immer ein Erfolgsmodell? Bringt sie stets ideal an ihre Umwelt angepasste Organismen hervor? Sind geniale Strategien ihr Kennzeichen? Zumindest bei einigen Lebewesen spricht alles dafür: So überleben manche Mikroben selbst in ätzenden Säuretümpeln und viele Tiere trotzen selbst glühendem Wüstenwind... more...

Wiley 2012; US$ 64.95This fourth edition of the best-selling textbook, Human Genetics and Genomics , clearly explains the key principles needed by medical and health sciences students, from the basis of molecular genetics, to clinical applications used in the treatment of both rare and common conditions. A newly expanded Part 1, Basic Principles of Human Genetics, focuses... more...
Darwin's Origin of Species
Atlantic Books Ltd 2012; US$ 7.28No book has changed our understanding of ourselves more than Darwin's Origin of Species. It caused a sensation on its first day of publication in 1859 and went on to become an international bestseller. The idea that living things gradually evolve through natural selection profoundly shocked its Victorian readers, calling into question what had been... more...
Alfred Russell Wallace Contributions to the theory of Natural Selection, 1870, and Charles Darwin and Alfred Wallace , 'On the Tendency of Species to
Taylor and Francis 2012; US$ 360.00Wallace noticed on expeditions to the Amazon and the Malay archipelego that mammals in Southeast Asia are more advanced than their Australian cousins. His suggestion was that the two continents had split before the better adapted mammals had evolved in Asia. The isolated Australian marsupials were able to thrive, whilst those in Asia were driven to... more...
Geological Evidence of the Antiquity of Man, 1863
Taylor and Francis 2012; US$ 360.00Charles Lyell's argument in this classic volume is that the processes of nature are slow and uniform, and that the Earth is in consequence hundreds of millions of years old. This work includes his prediction that if our nearest relatives are great apes, then the places to look for human fossils will be central Africa and Indonesia. more...
