The author carefully brings together evidence from diverse fields of science. In the process, he bridges the gaps between many different--and usually seen as conflicting--ideas to present one integrative theory named ONCE, which stands for Organic Nonoptimal Constrained Evolution. The author argues that evolution is mainly driven by the behavioral choices and persistence of organisms themselves, in a process in which Darwinian natural selection is mainly a secondary--but still crucial--evolutionary player. Within ONCE, evolution is therefore generally made of mistakes and mismatches and trial-and-error situations, and is not a process where organisms engage in an incessant, suffocating struggle in which they can‘t thrive if they are not optimally adapted to their habitats and the external environment. Therefore, this unifying view incorporates a more comprehensive view of the diversity and complexity of life by stressing that organisms are not merely passive evolutionary players under the rule of external factors. This insightful and well-reasoned argument is based on numerous fascinating case studies from a wide range of organ | | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | | 关键词 | Developmental constraints; Ecology; Phylogeny; Ecomorphology; Evolutionary trends; Canalization; Natural s | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-47581-3 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-83773-4 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-47581-3 | | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG 2017 |
