  • 演化論的賭局，人類只是其中一次：長頸鹿脖子、人類起源、利他合作、基因突變……生命在無數淘汰與嘗試中留下今天的樣子

    de 史鈞 ...
    ◎為什麼科學家會為演化論爭論上百年？◎只有達爾文一個人想到「自然選擇」嗎？◎長頸鹿的脖子，真的是因為一直伸長才變長嗎？◎如果人類會演化，那我們究竟算不算「被創造」？當科學挑戰神創論一場關於生命起源的思想革命就此展開▎如果物種不會改變，化石怎麼解釋？在人類歷史的大部分時間裡，人們相信世界是上帝一次創造完成的，所有物種從誕生起就保持不變。然而，隨著地質學與化石研究的發展，越來越多證據顯示地球歷史極為漫長，生物也似乎在不同時期出現不同樣貌。這些發現逐漸動搖傳統的神創觀念，也讓科學家開始思考：物種是否可能在時間中慢慢改變？▎拉馬克：第一個認真談「演化」的人在達爾文之前，法國學者拉馬克已經提出生物會改變的觀點。他認為生物的器官會因「用進廢退」而發生變化，例如長頸鹿因為長期伸長脖子吃高處的葉子，脖子才會變得越來越長。雖然這個解釋後來被證明並不完全正確，但拉馬克的重要之處在於，他讓人們第一次認真思考 ...
