Описание: An engaging history of the surprising, poignant, and occasionally scandalous stories behind scientific names and their cultural significance, "More fun than you've ever had with taxonomy in your whole entire life " (Diana Gabaldon, author of the Outlander series and PhD in Quantitative Behavioral Ecology) Ever since Carl Linnaeus's binomial system of scientific names was adopted in the eighteenth century, scientists have been eponymously naming organisms in ways that both honor and vilify their namesakes. This charming, informative, and accessible history examines the fascinating stories behind taxonomic nomenclature, from Linnaeus himself naming a small and unpleasant weed after a rival botanist to the recent influx of scientific names based on pop-culture icons--including David Bowie's spider, Frank Zappa's jellyfish, and Beyonc 's fly. Exploring the naming process as an opportunity for scientists to express themselves in creative ways, Stephen B. Heard's fresh approach shows how scientific names function as a window into both the passions and foibles of the scientific community and as a more general indicator of the ways in which humans relate to, and impose order on, the natural world.

Описание: The book offers a comparative analysis of diverse Darwinism-inspired discourses such as post-modern novels, science fiction, popular science and nature films. Analysing the uses of the evolutionary discourse in recent literature and films, the study demonstrates how natural science influences the contemporary humanities and how literary conventions are used to make scientific and popular-science texts intelligible and attractive. Charles Darwin’s Looking Glass shows how and why today’s culture gazes upon the myth of Darwin, his theory, and his life in order to find its own reflection.

Описание:
Natural Selection (Evolution): Fact or Fiction?
It all started with Darwin. Have you ever wondered what Darwin's Origin of Species... really says? Can you come up with logical answers as to why evolution is not fact? Geologist George Schulte provides a careful analysis and logical critique of Darwin's book, chapter by chapter. Verifiable facts are separated from fantasy and each issue addressed with surprising results.
Darwin's Origin of Species...Science or Fantasy? will reveal:
-The glaring lack of scientific evidence for Darwin's theory
-The case of the missing transitional forms
-The crucial differences between natural selection and variation within species
-The evidence that no one 'kind' has ever changed into another 'kind'
-What the geologic record really says
-The grave difficulties with Darwin's theory in his own words
This book will answer questions and settle issues. It is an invaluable resource for students, parents, teachers, and anyone who is interested in separating fact from fiction-the proven from the imagined.
