The source of the earth's great variety of animals was a scientific mystery until Charles Darwin proposed the idea of natural selection. Nova presents breakthroughs in a new science nicknamed evo devo that are linking the enigma of origins to another of nature's mysteries, the development of embryos.

Une étude approfondie des théories darwiniennes et de leurs différentes implications La théorie darwinienne de l'évolution reste le paradigme dominant de la biologie et de la paléontologie. Elle prouve sa fécondité et sa puissance explicative dans de très nombreux domaines. Pourtant, dans cet ouvrage, pas question d'un fétichisme de Darwin, mais d'un examen attentif du domaine de validité épistémologique et expérimental des idées du...
