Excerpt from Organ and Function: A Study of Evolution
A preface is customary, usually unnecessary and always an annoyance. In conclusion, then, let me say, if I were to express my admiration for those naturalists whose views I have ven tured to criticise I must write another chapter, and if I acknowledged my indebtedness to them I should be bankrupt of thanks.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of organic form and function through a critical analysis of the Darwinian theory of natural selection. The author argues that the theory of natural selection, while useful as a means of explaining certain evolutionary adaptations, fails to account for the development and persistence of useless or non-adaptive characteristics in living organisms. The book delves into the complexities of organ and function relationships, the role of beauty and design in nature, and the challenges of explaining the origins of complex biological systems. The author presents a thought-provoking critique of Darwinian evolution, offering alternative explanations for the development of life's incredible variety and complexity.
