"Darwin and Modern Science" is a comprehensive book written by a team of experts, including A.C. Seward, on the impact of Darwin's theories on modern scientific research. The book covers a wide range of topics related to evolution, including genetics, paleontology, biogeography, and ecology, to name a few. The book begins with an overview of Darwin's life and work, including his famous voyage on the HMS Beagle and the development of his theory of natural selection. The subsequent chapters delve into the various fields of study that have been influenced by Darwin's work, with each chapter written by a different expert in that field. The authors explore how Darwin's ideas have shaped our understanding of genetics and heredity, and how they have contributed to the development of the modern synthesis of evolutionary theory. They also examine the role of fossils in the study of evolution, the impact of Darwin's theories on biogeography and the distribution of species around the world, and the ways in which evolution has influenced our understanding of ecology and the natural world.

Darwin erehtyi - erehtyikö Einsteinkin?
Jo Sokrates pohti aikoinaan, hallitseeko tätä universumiksi kutsumaamme kaunista näyttämöä satunnaisuus vai mieli ja älykkyys. Professori Leisola vertaa kirjassaan näitä kahta toisilleen vastakkaista filosofista näkemystä. Hän ottaa esimerkeiksi Herakleitoksen ja Aristoteleen ajattelun ja osoittaa miten ne ovat vaikuttaneet biologian historian ja hiukkasfysiikan tulkintoihin. Hiukkaskiihdyttimien ja tarkkojen mittauksien takaa avautuu filosofisten oletusten valtakunta, jossa unohdetulla 1700-luvun fyysikollakin on hämmästyttävän paljon sanotta-vaa.

Charles Darwin astui HMS Beaglen kannelle 27.12.1831 ja aloitti viiden vuoden mittaisen matkan, joka toisaalta kesti hänen koko loppuelämänsä ajan. Tutkimusmatkan aikana hänen mielessään alkoi muhia käänteentekevä tieteellinen teoria eläinlajien vähittäisestä kehittymisestä ja polveutumisesta toisistaan. Evoluutioteoria pakotti hänet pohtimaan myös uskonnollisia näkemyksiä. Alkoi henkinen matka perinteisestä kristinuskosta teismin kautta kohti vanhuusvuosien agnostismia. Nick Spencer piirtää elävän kuvan Darwinista etsimässä vastauksia elämän peruskysymyksiin. Mitä ajatella Jumalasta, maailmankaikkeudesta, moraalista ja tietoisuudesta? Onko luonnossa suunnitelmallisuutta ja tarkoitushakuisuutta? Spencer hyödyntää Darwinin teosten lisäksi tämän julkaisemattomia käsikirjoituksia, muistiinpanoja ja kirjeenvaihtoa. Spencerin mukaan evoluutioteoria horjutti Darwinin kristillistä uskoa, mutta vasta ikivanha kärsimyksen ongelma romahdutti sen lopullisesti. Darwin pohti kärsimystä ensin teoreettisena kysymyksenä, kunnes kohtasi sen omakohtaisesti rakkaan tyttärensä kuollessa ennenaikaisesti. Silloin kuoli myös hänen uskonsa maailman kauneuteen ja Jumalan hyvään johdatukseen. Darwin ja Jumala kertoo koskettavan, kiehtovan ja hätkähdyttävän tarinan eräästä aikamme suurimmistä tiedemiehistä. Nick Spencer on brittiläisen uskontoa ja yhteiskuntaa tutkivan Theos -ajatushautomon tutkimusjohtaja.

Den 27 december 1831, gick Charles Darwin ombord på HMS Beagle i Plymouth. Resan blev nästan fem år lång och på många sätt en resa som satte sina spår under resten av Darwins liv. Före resan hade Darwin varit ”en sorts kristen”, ”konservativ” på ett konventionellt, rationellt och anglikanskt vis. Det han upplevde under resan med Beagle, förändrade hans sätt att se på kristen tro. Han gick från en konventionell kristen tro, till teism och därifrån till en ålderdom präglad av en vacklande agnosticism.Nick Spencer har forskat i Darwins självbiografi, manuskript, anteckningsböcker, brev och hans världsberömda publikationer. Resultatet blir ett djupt personligt porträtt av hur Darwin tänkte i frågor kring design, ändamålsenlighet, moral, universum och det mänskliga medvetandet. Författaren argumenterar för att Darwins vetenskapliga arbete med sin utvecklingsteori, var en av orsakerna till att hans kristna tro började vackla. Men tankar kring lidande och smärta hade en större inverkan, först i teorin, men sedan som självupplevd verklighet, när hans älskade dotter insjuknade och dog en för tidig död. Författarens inträngande studie av Darwin, presenterar en rörande, trovärdig och på många sätt omskakande berättelse om en av världshistoriens största vetenskapsmän.Nick Spencer är forskningschef i den brittiska tankesmedjan Theos. Boken är översatt och har ett förord av Stefan Djupsjöbacka som är mikrobgenetiker, lärare och präst.

Darwin’s Footprint examines the impact of Darwinism in Greece, investigating how it has shaped Greece in terms of its cultural and intellectual history, and in particular its literature. The book demonstrates that in the late 19th to early 20th centuries Darwinism and associated science strongly influenced celebrated Greek literary writers and other influential intellectuals, which fueled debate in various areas such as ‘man’s place in nature’, eugenics, the nature-nurture controversy, religion, as well as class, race and gender. In addition, the study reveals that many of these individuals were also considering alternative approaches to these issues based on Darwinian and associated biological post-Darwinian ideas. Their concerns included the Greek “race” or nation, its culture, language and identity; also politics and gender equality. Zarimis’s monograph devotes considerable space to Xenopoulos (1867-1951), notable novelist, journalist and playwright.

This book is a response to the blatant partiality of the mainstream media in favor of the atheistic discourse. It is an analytical breakdown of the two of the most fundamental ideas upon which atheism stands afoot; origin of the first life and Darwinian evolution thereafter. Origin of the first ever living organism, which is speculated to have occurred spontaneously, has been discussed in this book in the light of our current understanding of a simple cell and our laboratory attempts to create the same. From thereon, the first cell to the first human, it is a huge leap that science credits Neo-Darwinism for. This book contains a concise and to-the-point discussion on the difficulties of the Darwin's Theory of Evolution and whether it's really as factual as advertised.The biological foundation of atheism is wrongly exaggerated and the argument of intelligent-design is extremely under-represented in the literary world. The aftermath of that is just a long list of bad outcomes that are rampant but avoidable. This book is a small contribution to equip science with thriving neutrality and cleanse it of intolerant bigotry instilled by certain elements of modern atheism.Contemporary atheists like Richard Dawkins are repeatedly bombarding the world with new ways of discarding the need for God. Their ideas stream freely into the mass media and then to the public because of the sheer lack of checks on their validity. This book welcomes their arguments and deals with them from a scientific point of view putting the mandatory checks on the accuracy of their "scientific claims". While you read through the book, you will feel time and again that this perspective to biology and atheism has been kept from you by your science teacher, course books, media, your atheist friend and every other mainstream source of information.The book is structured to include the common narratives that feed into the atheistic discourse and challenges the validity of those ideas. It also asks the big questions about science that are considered 'too orthodox' for the modern times.What is different about this book than other texts on similar topics is the invested emphasis on reasoning instead of sentimental pleas to the reader to believe in God. It in fact contains objective substance which provokes the reader's thought process and allows them to formulate their own opinion about atheism and theology.I hope new frontiers of discussion about the subject of origin of intelligent life are opened by means of this book.

Darwin's Universe - From Nothing, By Nothing, For Nothing - Survival for Nothing
Darwinists hope to bury God in an avalanche of a causeless universe and a godless evolution. But instead of liberating us, they plunge us into a cosmic depression. We are reduced to: From Nothing, By Nothing, For Nothing - an accidental leftover from the Big Bang, evolved by a lucky chance, and are here for no ultimate purpose. We are just walking molecules, birthed through a cosmic accident, dancing to the music of our DNA, and destined to disappear in a cosmic blink - nothing more, nothing less, nothing else. And when we look to science and evolution for answers, all we get is a blank look. Life has no real purpose dude - it is about the survival of the genes in us - feeding, fending, fleeting and fathering - just live through it and get it over. Our final destination is the hole in the ground. But is it true? Perhaps we are: From Someone, By Someone, For Someone. Perhaps there is an unexplored and awesome universe beyond the Darwinian world of survival for nothing. Science encourages us to think critically and let us place Darwinism in the crosshairs and examine it in the light of empirical science - is it observable, falsifiable and repeatable? If not, it is not experimental science. And, as we shall see, Darwinism is an unobservable and unreproducible pseudo-science. This book will walk us through cosmology, biology, philosophy and end with theology, the queen of the sciences. Empirical science buries Darwinism and resurrects Creationism. We are more than cosmic orphans lost in an accidental, uncaring and dying Universe; we are living souls, made in the image of God, and designed to have a wonderful relationship with an awesome Creator. Yan T Wee, the founding Pastor of Shalom Baptist Church, Singapore, writes from his fascinating research into the latest skirmish between speculative Darwinism and deducible Creationism. He concludes that Darwinism, when viewed in its entirety, is not only disingenuous, but a guaranteed, one-way ticket into the universe of ultimate meaninglessness and despair.

Young Charles would spend ages outside at every opportunity, studying nature and observing animals, plants and any other wonders he could find hidden away. He would lose himself for hours in the great outdoors, taking in all the details of the natural world around him. Being outdoors was his very favourite thing "Don't worry, Dad. I'll find a way to help the world", young Charles used to tell his father - and unquestionably he did With his Theory of Evolution by natural selection, Darwin becomes one of the greatest biologists and most influential figures in human history.Two hundred years later, we can explain who we are and understand where we come from, thanks to the priceless knowledge that Charles Darwin gave to the world through his research and books.
