    Geniale Anpassungen und folgenreiche Fehltritte

    de Dieter Lohmann, Nadja Podbregar ...
    Series series Life Science and Basic Disciplines (German Language)
    Ist die Evolution immer ein Erfolgsmodell? Bringt sie stets ideal an ihre Umwelt angepasste Organismen hervor? Sind geniale Strategien ihr Kennzeichen? Zumindest bei einigen Lebewesen spricht alles dafür: So überleben manche Mikroben selbst in ätzenden Säuretümpeln und viele Tiere trotzen selbst glühendem Wüstenwind oder arktischen Frösten. Manchmal allerdings scheinen der Evolution auch Pannen ... Leer más

  • The Biological Mind

    A Philosophical Introduction

    de Justin Garson ...
    For some, biology explains all there is to know about the mind. Yet many big questions remain: Is the mind shaped by genes or the environment? If mental traits are the result of adaptations built up over thousands of years, as evolutionary psychologists claim, how can such claims be tested? If the mind is a machine, as biologists argue, how does it allow for something as complex as human thought ... Leer más

  • Seeing Opera Anew

    A Cultural and Biological Perspective

    de Joseph Cone ...
    What people ultimately want from opera, audience research suggests, is to be absorbed in a story that engages their feelings, even moves them deeply, and that may lead them to insights about life and, perhaps, themselves.How and why can this combination of music and drama do that? What causes people to be moved by opera? How is it that people may become more informed about living and their own ... Leer más

  • Unity and Disunity in Evolutionary Biology

    Deconstructing Darwinism

    Edición de Richard G. Delisle, Maurizio Esposito, David Ceccarelli ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    It is not uncommon to see in major areas of research concerned with science that historical studies are accompanied by the rise of complementary or contradictory historiographies. With time, it seems, scholars discover new approaches to study topics, thus questioning old concepts, traditions, periodizations and historical labels. Apparently, this has not been the case in evolutionary thought. In ... Leer más

  • Teeth

    A Very Short Introduction

    de Peter S. Ungar ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    Teeth are amazing - the product of half a billion years of evolution. They provide fuel for the body by breaking apart other living things; and they must do it again and again over a lifetime without themselves being broken in the process. This means that plants and animals have developed tough or hard tissues for protection, and teeth have evolved ways to sharpen or strengthen themselves to ... Leer más

  • Reflections on the Musical Mind

    An Evolutionary Perspective

    de Jay Schulkin ...
    What's so special about music? We experience it internally, yet at the same time it is highly social. Music engages our cognitive/affective and sensory systems. We use music to communicate with one another--and even with other species--the things that we cannot express through language. Music is both ancient and ever evolving. Without music, our world is missing something essential.In Reflections ... Leer más
