Covering a wide range of issues starting in the eighteenth century, Darwinian Heresies brings us through the time of Charles Darwin and the Origin, and then through the twentieth century to the present. It is suggested that Darwin's true roots lie in Germany, not his native England, that Russian evolutionism is more significant than many are prepared to allow, and that the true influence on twentieth-century evolution biology was not Charles Darwin at all, but his often-despised contemporary, Herbert Spencer. The collection was intended to interest, to excite, to infuriate, and to stimulate further work.Evolution (Biology)HistoryEvolution (Biology)History.576.8/09Lustig Abigail1958-Richards Robert J(Robert John),1942-Ruse MichaelUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910457186503321Darwinian heresies2480776UNINA
