Reconciling Genesis & Science

Unlocking the Theories of Creation

Evolutionists, Creationists and Intelligent Design theorists have been arguing the questions of the origin of the universe for decades. To the surprise of many, the argument is not simply scientific, Philosophy and point of view often skew the facts. In recent years the battle has escalated, isolating the groups, so the productive communication and genuine debate has become impossible. In this ... Leer más

The Foundations of Ethology

de K. Lorenz ...

Traducido por K. Lorenz, R.W. Kickert ...

Series series Behavioral Science and Psychology (R0)
This book is a contribution to the history of ethology-not a definitive history, but the personal view of a major figure in that story. It is all the more welcome because such a grand theme as ethology calls for a range of perspectives. One reason is the overarching scope of the subject. Two great questions about life that constitute much of biology are "How does it work (structure and function)?" ... Leer más
