The Ghosts in Our DNA

A single pinky bone shattered the story we told ourselves about being human.In a Siberian cave, a tiny finger fragment revealed an entire lost humanity—the Denisovans—whose genes still live inside billions of people today. Neanderthals, long dismissed as primitive dead ends, turned out to be our ancestors. And deep in our DNA, ghost populations we have never found as fossils whisper that the human ... Leer más

Evolution in Modern Thought

de William Bateson ...

The first naturalist to give a broad and concrete expression to the evolutionist doctrine of descent was Buffon (1707-1788), but it is interesting to recall the fact that his contemporary Linnæus (1707-1778), protagonist of the counter-doctrine of the fixity of species, went the length of admitting (in 1762) that new species might arise by inter-crossing. Buffon's position among the pioneers of ... Leer más
