Sociobiology: Sense or Nonsense?
ISBN: 9789400993914 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 233 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In June 1975, the distinguished Harvard entomologist Edward O. Wilson published a truly huge book entitled, Sociobiology: The New Synthesis. In this book, drawing on both fact and theory, Wilson tried to present a com- prehensive overview of the rapidly growing subject of 'sociobiology', the study of the biological nature and foundations of animal behaviour, more precisely animal social behaviour.

ISBN: 9780199334599 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Over the last decade, "New Atheists" such as Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, and Christopher Hitchens have pushed the issue of atheism to the forefront of public discussion.

ISBN: 9781943657100 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Simply Darwin tells the story of Charles Robert Darwin (1809–1882) and his theory of evolution through natural selection.

ISBN: 9780521637169 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Can someone who accepts Darwin's theory of natural selection subscribe at the same time to the basic tenets of Christianity?

Ruse has produced an important contribution to a sometimes overheated debate for anyone interested in seeking an informed and judicious guide to these issues. Michael Ruse is professor of philosophy and zoology at the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada. He is the author of many books on...

Biologists study life in its various physical forms, while philosophers of biology seek answers to questions about the nature, purpose, and impact of this research. What permits us to distinguish between living and nonliving things even though both are made of the same minerals? Is the complex structure of organisms proof that a creative force is working its will in the physical universe, or are existing life-forms the random result of an evolutionary process working itself out over eons of time? What moral and social questions arise regarding modern advances in biotechnology? What is more...
