Charles Darwin (1809 -- 1882) hat ganz recht mit seiner Evolutionslehre; aber der Darwin des 19. Jahrhunderts hat sich selbst und seine Theorie noch nicht recht verstanden. Erst der Darwin des 21. Jahrhunderts kann zum vollen Verst ndnis seiner Abstammungslehre gelangen. Dazu helfen ihm gro e Wissenschaftler und Philosophen in posthumen, aber doch sehr realen Gespr chen. Hier und heute spricht Darwin mit dem New Yorker Evolutionsbiologen Stephen J. Gould (1940 -- 2002). Die ganze Pointe ist: Das Prinzip 'Mutation und Selektion' liefert kein volles Wissen, weil Zufall und Notwendigkeit, die darin stecken, selbst kein volles Wissen liefern. Dies ist die Erleuchtung des neuen Darwins: Notwendigkeit ist ein Wissensprinzip, Zufall ein Nichtwissensprinzip.
The Science and Humanism of Stephen Jay Gould

Stephen Jay Gould was not only a leading paleontologist and evolutionary theorist, he was also a humanist with an enduring interest in the history and philosophy of science. The extraordinary range of Gould's work was underpinned by a richly nuanced and deeply insightful worldview.Richard York and Brett Clark engage Gould's science and humanism to illustrate and develop the intellectual power of Gould's worldview, particularly with regard to the philosophy of science. They demonstrate how the Gouldian perspective sheds light on many of the key debates occurring not only in the natural sciences, but in the social sciences as well. They engage the themes that unified Gould's work and drove his inquires throughout his intellectual career, such as the nature of history, both natural and social, particularly the profound importance of contingency and the uneven tempo of change. They also assess Gould's views on structuralism, highlighting the importance of the dialectical interaction of structural forces with everyday demands for function, and his views on the hierarchical ordering of causal forces, with some forces operating at large scales and/or over long spans of time, while others are operating on small scales and/or occur frequently or rapidly.York and Clark also address Gould's application of these principals to understanding humanity's place in nature, including discussions of human evolution, sociobiology, and the role of art in human life. Taken together, this book illuminates Gould's dynamic understanding of the world and his celebration of both science and humanism.

The Mouse and The Blue Jay: A modern day spin on the classic Aesop's fables
There's a volcano erupting in the forest, but is Blue Jay the only one around who notices? In his efforts to warn the others of the danger, he encounters Mouse, who denies that the eruption even exists at all. Over the course of their argument, others gather, and sides form: those who believe the eruption exists and those who don't. Mirroring the morality tales of Aesop's fables, The Mouse and The Blue Jay explores the idea that sometimes it's okay to admit when you're wrong, especially when what you're denying is such a clear and present danger.About the AuthorA .B. Lane is the mother of two children and is engaged to the love of her life. Her hobbies include poetry, painting, and video gaming. She currently suffers from undiagnosed medical issues that affect her physical ability, and because of this, she plans to use some of the proceeds from The Mouse and the Blue Jay to regularly donate to women's health.
