Combining the results of cutting-edge work in experimental biology with crystal-clear philosophical arguments, they mount a reasoned and convincing assault on the central tenets of Darwin’s account of the origin of species. The logic underlying natural selection is the survival of the fittest under changing environmental pressure. This logic, they argue, is mistaken, and they back up the claim with surprising evidence of what actually happens in nature. This is a rare achievement—a concise argument that is likely to make a great deal of difference to a very large subject. \u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eWhat Darwin Got Wrong\u003c\/span\u003e will be controversial. The authors’ arguments will reverberate through the scientific world. At the very least they will transform the debate about evolution and move us beyond the false dilemma of being either for natural selection or against science.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47494693879970,"sku":null,"price":300.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/51m1RdrQloL._SY342.jpg?v=1785824498","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/what-darwin-got-wrong-by-jerry-fodor-massimo-piattelli-palmarini","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
