Mendel's Principles of Heredity: A Defence, with a Translation of Mendel's Original Papers on Hybridisation
ISBN: 9781108006132 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. William Bateson (1861 1926) began his academic career working on variation in animals in the light of evolutionary theory.

Materials for the Study of Variation: Treated with Especial Regard to Discontinuity in the Origin of Species
ISBN: 9781108053129 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 620 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Building on the work of Darwin and Mendel, the biologist William Bateson (1861 1926) was the first scientist to combine the study of variation, heredity and evolution, and to use the term 'genetics'. This book was first published in 1894 after many years of experimental and theoretical work particularly in the embryology of the acorn worm genus Balanoglossus which had been guided by the principle that embryonic developmental stages replay the evolutionary transitions of adult forms of an organism's ancestors. Bateson was the first to challenge this theory, which made him unpopular among the...
