Twelve renowned scientists and theologians offer penetrating insights into the evolution dialogue in The Deep Structure of Biology. Each considers whether the orthodox model of evolution is sufficient and offers his/her own perspective on evolution and biology. The discussion of biology and evolution in these essays broadens the scope of the traditional evolution discussion as it aims to stimulate the development of further research programs. Scholars in the science and religion field will find this book a valuable resource.

Story0
The sixth "mass extinction event" in the history of planet Earth is currently under way, with over two hundred species dying off every day. The cause of this seismic event is also the source of the single biggest threat to human life: our own inventions. But for all our talk about sea levels and biotechnology, do we really know what our future will actually look like? Will our immune systems be attacked by so-called super bugs, always evolving, and more easily spread than ever? Will the disappearance of numerous species cripple the biosphere?

An extraterrestrial colony, in some form, may already exist, just awaiting discovery. But the greatest impediment to such an important scientific discovery may not be technological, but political. No scientific endeavor can be launched without a budget, and matters of money are within the arena of politicians. Dr. Ben Bova explores some of the key players and the arguments waged in a debate of both scientific and cultural priorities.

Story1
In humanity’s more than 100,000 year history, we have evolved from vulnerable creatures clawing sustenance from Earth to a sophisticated global society manipulating every inch of it. In short, we have become the dominant animal. Why, then, are we creating a world that threatens our own species? What can we do to change the current trajectory toward more climate change, increased famine, and epidemic disease?

Charles Darwin, el precursor de la literatura científica, expuso en El origen de las especies su famosa teoría de la biología evolutiva y la selección natural. Fue una publicación polémica que suscitó discusiones científicas, filosóficas y religiosas; sin embargo, hoy, la teoría moderna de la evolución acepta las tesis sobre la adaptación al medio ambiente de una especie para sobrevivir y su lenta, pero evidente, evolución.

Draghi, ciclopi, giganti, unicorni, fenici. Quando gli antichi si imbattevano in resti di animali sconosciuti, subito li attribuivano a creature fantastiche. Poi gli scienziati hanno dimostrato che si trattava solo di fantasie ancestrali: i mostri non esistono, oggi lo sappiamo tutti; eppure la spiegazione che gli studiosi hanno dato di quei reperti è stata addirittura più terrificante: prima di noi, una miriade di altri viventi abitava il nostro pianeta, ma ora non ci sono più. Sulla Terra, infatti, nulla è per sempre.

Alla luce delle ricerche più recenti, l'audiolibro introduce i fondamenti della teoria evoluzionistica - formulata da Charles Darwin più di un secolo e mezzo fa - al cui centro stanno tre spinte concomitanti: le sorgenti di variazione, la trasmissibilità di una parte di questa variazione di generazione in generazione, l'azione della selezione naturale nei mutevoli contesti ecologici. Ripercorre poi gli altri meccanismi che oggi integrano ed estendono il nucleo darwiniano della teoria, fino alla comparsa di Homo sapiens, un ramoscello nel ricco "cespuglio" degli ominini.

This Very Short Introduction uncovers the history of our understanding of sexual selection, from Darwin's key insights to the modern day. Considering the investment animals place on reproduction, variation in mating systems, sexual conflict, and the origin of sexual dimorphism, authors Marlene Zuk and Leigh Simmons discuss questions such as whether females can really choose between males on aesthetic grounds and how sexual conflict is resolved in different species.

In the new essays collected here, an interdisciplinary group of scholars asks age-old questions about the nature and well-being of humans in the context of a revolutionary new biotechnology - one that has the potential to change the genetic make-up of both existing people and future generations. Welcoming listeners who study related issues and those not yet familiar with the formal study of bioethics, the authors of these essays open up a conversation about the ethics of gene editing.

For the last three billion years or so, life on Earth was shaped by natural forces. Evolution tended to happen slowly, with species crafted across millennia. Then, a few hundred thousand years ago, along came a bolshie, big-brained, bipedal primate we now call Homo sapiens, and with that, the Earth’s natural history came to an abrupt end. We are now living through the post-natural phase, where humans have become the leading force shaping evolution. This audiobook considers the many ways that we’ve altered the DNA of living things and changed the fate of life on earth.

El origen de las especies es un libro de Charles Darwin publicado el 24 de noviembre de 1859, considerado uno de los trabajos precursores de la literatura científica y el fundamento de la teoría de la biología evolutiva. Presentó pruebas de que la diversidad de la vida surgió de la descendencia común a través de un patrón ramificado de evolución. Darwin incluyó las pruebas que reunió en su expedición en el viaje del Beagle en la década de 1830 y sus descubrimientos posteriores mediante la investigación, la correspondencia y la experimentación.
