Download or read book Objections to Evolution written by Nirushan Sivanesan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-05-11 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of evolution, as proposed by Charles Darwin in 1859, has been plagued by controversy and criticisms since its inception. But in the Western world at least, the fight seems to be almost over, with evolution being seen by many as a sealed deal. The theory has made its way into science textbooks and has firmly lodged itself there. Could this be the biggest mistake the scientific community has ever made? Objections to Evolution addresses this question. It reexamines the evidence for evolution and brings forth a new case against it from a nonreligious perspective. This case contains completely unique and thought-provoking ideas, arguments, and theories. It asks and answers fundamental questions, which have not been addressed previously, and attempts to create a revolution in the way we think about our origins.

Download or read book Evidence and Evolution written by Elliott Sober and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-03-27 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should the concept of evidence be understood? And how does the concept of evidence apply to the controversy about creationism as well as to work in evolutionary biology about natural selection and common ancestry? In this rich and wide-ranging book, Elliott Sober investigates general questions about probability and evidence and shows how the answers he develops to those questions apply to the specifics of evolutionary biology. Drawing on a set of fascinating examples, he analyzes whether claims about intelligent design are untestable; whether they are discredited by the fact that many adaptations are imperfect; how evidence bears on whether present species trace back to common ancestors; how hypotheses about natural selection can be tested, and many other issues. His book will interest all readers who want to understand philosophical questions about evidence and evolution, as they arise both in Darwin's work and in contemporary biological research.
