一年前的书评,贴过来。 《为什么要相信达尔文》(叶盛译,科学出版社,2009年。原书名为Why Evolution is True,直译是“为什么演化论是真的”)是美国著名演化生物学家杰里·科因(Jerry A. Coyne)的近著,该书从生命科学的各个领域收集最新的研究成果,雄辩地证明了达尔文...
评分主持人:2009年是达尔文诞辰200周年,《物种起源》发表150周年,世界各地举办了各种纪念活动,也出版了一些纪念性书籍。其中,芝加哥大学生态与演化学系教授Jerry Coyne的Why Evolution is True就是其中一本。这本书虽然赶在这个时机出版,却绝对不是应景之作,它凝结了作者多...
评分提问 观众9:刚才龙老师提到“进化”这个说法,我知道有些学校教授无机生物学,研究无机物向有机物的转变,因为我们以前受的教育告诉我们,从宇宙产生开始,先有无机物,然后演变成有机物,从有氨基酸合成以后才逐渐有了微生物,才逐渐有了复杂的生物,比如从简单的节肢动物开...
评分 评分对于个研究基因组进化的小硕,要是谈起进化论(貌似书里提出用演化论更准确但是习惯了。。)都不能说出个123那可太丢人了。。桌上现在还放着本北大科学元典版本舒得干翻译的《物种起源》,之前翻开过两次,可问题是是在读不下去呐。。这本书读起来倒是非常顺畅,碰到比...

Why evolution is more than just a theory: it is a fact
In all the current highly publicized debates about creationism and its descendant "intelligent design," there is an element of the controversy that is rarely mentioned-the evidence , the empirical truth of evolution by natural selection. Even Richard Dawkins and Stephen Jay Gould, while extolling the beauty of evolution and examining case studies, have not focused on the evidence itself. Yet the proof is vast, varied, and magnificent, drawn from many different fields of science. Scientists are observing species splitting into two and are finding more and more fossils capturing change in the past-dinosaurs that have sprouted feathers, fish that have grown limbs.
Why Evolution Is True weaves together the many threads of modern work in genetics, paleontology, geology, molecular biology, and anatomy that demonstrate the "indelible stamp" of the processes first proposed by Darwin. In crisp, lucid prose accessible to a wide audience, Why Evolution Is True dispels common misunderstandings and fears about evolution and clearly confirms that this amazing process of change has been firmly established as a scientific truth.
不了解译本(但名字我认为就翻译得不妥),看的原著,觉得写得非常系统,语言也很好懂,不需要太高英语阅读水平。非常不错的科普读物,深入浅出,里面关于进化论的切入点与很多这类型的书籍不太一样,令人眼前一亮。看完以后让我更加觉得生命如同史诗一样壮丽。五星好评。然后就是想说,这是大众读物呀,不是学术著作。
评分好书推荐。很多时候我们只知道去支持或者去反对,却并不知道为什么支持为什么反对,不去理解事物的本身是如何,为什么正确为什么错误,以及何处有局限何处又很合理。
