ダブルポイント詳細

Since its original publication in 1983, Evolution: The History of an Ideahas been recognized as a comprehensive and authoritative source on the development and impact of this most controversial of scientific theories. This new edition has been entirely rewritten to take account of the latest work of historians and scientists. The sequence of chapters has been reconstructed in a way that will help students and general readers to understand the key phases in the development of modern evolutionism. The book's substantial bibliography has been updated to serve as a valuable introduction to the immense literature on this topic.

It is a good textbook on the history of evolutionism

2012年3月28日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

It is a classic textbook on the history of evolutionism and I would recommend it to my students. However, it has at least one disadvantage, namely, the author concentrated mainly on the evolutionsm history in XIX century. Most recent debates on evolution (since 1960s) have been omitted or rescribed rather briefly. So, I would like to get a little more balanced book. In all other respects, this book is excellent. My personal extimate of it is lying somewhere between four and five but nevertheless I am inclined to give five stars.

Darwinism and Evolution

2012年11月12日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

A very exhaustive and deep-rooted study of the concept of evolution, of the "darwinian revolution", with the authors, the various schools of thought, the historical and scientific or extra-scientific disputes, and the idealogical and political significance.
We find the precursors of the idea of evolution: Linné, Buffon, Cuvier, Lamarck..., the more direct sources of the theory of Charles Darwin: Lyell, Humboldt, Malthus, and the grand father of the author, Erasmus Darwin, and also the rivalry with Alfred Russel Wallace.
Since his masterpiece "On the Origins of Species", 1859, and refering to his whole Work, Darwin's heritage appears considerable, with so many scientists and the diversity of existing interpretations. We can quote: the Social Evolutionism of Herbert Spencer, Neo-Lamarckism, Neo-Darwinism, Creationism, Intelligent Design, Socio-Biology (E.O. Wilson)... and by the way considering the relationship with other matters such as ethology: Konrad Lorenz. The elements of the "New Synthesis" of the XXth century are clearly exposed: the "Evolutionary Modern Synthesis" based upon the Gregor Mendel's laws of heredity and the natural selection theory of Darwin. See: Julian Huxley: "Evolution The Modern Synthesis".
Peter J. Bowler refers to epistemology (Karl Popper, Thomas S. Kuhn), having in mind to show how difficult it is to investigate within such a rich cause, how complexity is inherent in this topic, and keeping one's attitude: Darwin's theory with his significance and his implications is far more subtle that what we usually think.

Deepens your understanding of evolution, science, society and history.

2007年9月24日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This book exams the history and development of theories of evolution from pre-enlightenment to the present day. Natural selection, orthogenesis and Lamarckism all play prominent roles, which have waxed and waned in popularity throughout this time.

The progress of theories of evolution is seen in the context of developments in other areas of biology, and also other sciences such as palaeontology, geology and physics as well as broader cultural changes. Bowler suggest that even after the publishing of the Origin of Species, Darwinism did not become mainstream until after developments in heredity and genetics in the first part of the twentieth century, and is still generating controversy today.

Bowler describes the ongoing interplay between theories of evolution and philosophy, religion, politics, and how these factors influence the acceptance and promotion or otherwise of the various theories of evolution, and also how theories of evolution have been [mis-]used to support often contrary ideological positions.

I think that Bowler's account would also provide a good case study with which to evaluate competing philosophies of science.

The book is erudite, and dense. It presents complex and subtle ideas clearly, but is not light reading, requiring, at least from me, concentration and effort. However, it does pay off: I came to this book with a background in biology rather than history and think this book helped me to a deeper understanding of both.

The evolution of an idea

2003年1月29日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This history of evolutionary thought is good at showing how the idea developed in Darwin's particular society, influenced by thinkers before Darwin such as Malthus. The book, also shows how Darwin's thinking evolved, how the idea itself evolved from outside influences (particularly plate tectonics and cosmology), and how it influenced non-biological thinking (such at utilitarianism, capitalism, Marxism) sometimes in scary ways such as eugenics.
Throughout the book, it seems like philosophers (at least in the West) desired a purpose and direction of evolution, if not a Director. Lamarckianism (inheritance of acquired characteristics) also seemed to have continual appeal and in the later editions of the Origin of Species, Darwin himself was leaning more that way. The continual difficulty of direct evidence and incomplete fossil record, leads to ongoing speculations.
Although generally dry/scholarly there are a few fun side-diversions, such as Kammerer's midwife toad. Bowler also highlights other key figures such as paleontologist Georges Cuvier and "Darwin's bulldog" Thomas Huxley. I would have like more history of how the general public accepted the idea, perhaps by tracing the teaching in schools or textbooks. Readers of this might also enjoy Dawkins "The Blind Watchmaker".

excellent and detailed survey

Bowler's book has become a classic, and justifiably so. He traces the history of the idea of evolution, beginning long before Darwin, and the heated controversies it led to, including the long eclipse of Darwinism and the subsequent modern synthesis.
