He was also a renowned taxonomist, tropical explorer, ornithologist, philosopher of biology, and historian of science. His work contributed to the conceptual revolution that led to the modern evolutionary synthesis of Mendelian genetics, systematics, and Darwinian evolution, and to the development of the biological species concept.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Advances in molecular biological research in the last forty years have made the story of the gene vastly complicated: the more we learn about genes, the less sure we are of what a gene really is. Knowledge about the structure and functioning of genes abounds, but the gene has also become curiously intangible. This collection of essays renews the question: what are genes? Philosophers, historians, and working scientists re-evaluate the question in this volume, treating the gene as a focal point of interdisciplinary and international research. This book is unique in that it is the first interdisciplinary volume solely devoted to the quest for the gene. It will be of interest to professionals and students in the philosophy and history of science, genetics, and molecular biology. This collection of essays renews the question: what are genes? This book is the first interdisciplinary volume, written by philosophers, historians, and working scientists, solely devoted to the quest for the gene.

Condition: Gut. XVI; 384 S.; 23,5 cm. Gutes Ex.; Umschl. etwas berieben u. mit Aufkleber "Ansichtsexemplar". - Englisch. - . Philosophers, historians, and working scientists approach the issue from a variety of perspectives. This volume provides evidence of the diversity of scientific disciplines that presently have a stake in the quest for the gene. The essays collected here offer challenging perspectives on some of the most fundamental concepts of twentieth-century biology. Conceptual perspectives about the gene as it is presently known provide the substance of three contributions. The examination of pre-Darwinian heredity concepts, Goldschmidt's demission of the gene, and Seymour Benzer's work on the fine structure of the gene are also explored. A critique of the "genetic program" is presented as well as modern findings about the functioning of "master genes" during embryogenesis. In the final essay, Raphael Falk reviews the material laid out in this volume and lucidly summarizes the primary themes. . (Vorwort) // INHALT : Introduction ---- List of Authors : ---- PART ONE.
