He commanded the biological sciences in the decades after Darwin‘s death in 1882. To understand these years we must first understand Bateson. Through examination of the life of a major contributor to the turn-of-the-nineteenth-century revolution in biology, the authors reconcile the genocentrism of George Williams and Richard Dawkins with the hierarchical thinking of Richard Goldschmidt and Stephen Jay Gould. Aided by Rebecca Saunders, Bateson invented much of the basic terminology of modern genetics and, when addressing Darwin‘s great problem – the origin of species, introduced the mysterious term "the residue." While the first edition of this work (2008) related "residue" to relative concentrations of bases in DNA, the second edition reveals this as reflecting fundamental differences in short strings of bases. Thus, the book has come to represent not only Bateson’s science and life, but also a revised history of the biosciences that is likely to be increasingly visited, both by scientists and by those who wish to fully understand contemporary debates on racial, eugenic and | 出版日期 | Book 2022Latest edition | 关键词 | Charles Darwin; Chromosom; Darwin; biohistory; biology; evolution; evolutionary biology; genetics; history o | 版次 | 2 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-92099-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-92101-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-92099-9 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
