Mendel's Legacy: The Origin of Classical Genetics
ISBN: 9780879696757 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this interdisciplinary historical work, the author asks how and why classical genetics developed in the United States from 1900 to 1920, rather than in Europe where cytology, breeding analysis, evolutionary theory, and organismal biology originated. The answer, he argues, is the invention of the American University Ph.D. program and the appearance of institutions devoted to the study of heredity, such as research centers and professional associations.

Mutation: The History of an Idea from Darwin to Genomics
ISBN: 9781936113309 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Today, most scientists regard the term "mutation" as a description of a change in an individual gene, and more precisely as some minute alteration of the DNA of that gene, especially a nucleotide substitution. But the idea of mutation has changed considerably from the pre-Mendelian concepts of Darwin's generation, who viewed "fluctuating variations" as the raw material on which evolution acted, to today's up-to-the-minute genomic context of mutation. Mutation: The History of an Idea from Darwin to Genomics explores six generations of mutation research, providing the backgroundthe people and...

Neither Gods Nor Beasts: How Science Is Changing Who We Think We Are
ISBN: 9780879697860 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Traditional views of human nature focus on the supernatural, defining us as creatures with souls, minds, and spirits that transcend our physical attributes. In this provocative book, distinguished scientist and historian Elof Axel Carlson argues for a different understanding of ourselves based on our biology-cellular organization, genetics, life cycle, evolution, and our origins as a species. This interpretation does not negate our capacity for imagination, spiritual and emotional yearnings, or aesthetic appreciation for art, music, and literature. Carlson challenges educators, the media, and...

The 7 Sexes: Biology of Sex Determination
ISBN: 9780253006455 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Few of us know much about the biology of sex determination, but what could be more interesting than to discover how we are shaped into males and females? In this book, Elof Carlson tells the incredible story of the difficult quest to understand how the body forms girls and boys. Carlson's history takes us from antiquity to the present day to detail how each component of human reproduction and sexuality was identified and studied, how this knowledge enlarged our understanding of sex determination, and how it was employed to interpret such little understood aspects of human biology as the...
