Rickes. First edition of this first major statistical and biometric study of biological variation which established foundational concepts like regression to the mean and the law of ancestral heredity that shaped quantitative genetics. Galton was a pioneer in forensic science heredity and more fields and half-cousin to Charles Darwin whose studies on inheritance of certain traits such as the hereditary nature of later served as the basis of behavioral genetics or eugenics which later was used to justify compulsory sterilization programs across the United States and by Nazi Germany for mass extermination.

2012br. Da dove viene la morale? Su che cosa poggiano i nostri valori? Come riusciamo a sapere cosa è bene e cosa è male? Per secoli filosofi e teologi hanno indagato la natura umana alla ricerca di una risposta. Molte sono state le intuizioni brillanti e le argomentazioni sottili. Solo oggi, però, quelle intuizioni e argomentazioni possono trovare un "saldo" legame con la storia evolutiva che ha permesso a noi e al nostro cervello di diventare quelli che siamo. Patricia Churchland ci invita a fare i conti con i processi e i meccanismi biologici che hanno contribuito a plasmare forme e modi del nostro dover essere morale. Le scoperte più recenti nell'ambito della biologia evoluzionistica, della genetica e delle neuroscienze cognitive diventano così gli strumenti essenziali per orientarsi nell'intricata selva delle questioni morali. Non si tratta, però, di cedere alla tentazione di un facile scientismo ma di riconoscere che solo se scopriamo cosa ci renda capaci di prenderci cura di noi e degli altri possiamo capire come l'animale sociale Homo sapiens sia diventato un animale morale.

Gray-brown softcovers title on front cover contents on back cover minor edgewear toning minor chipping head & foot of spine minor bumping to corners still a VG- copy from the libraries of Elof Axel Carlson 1931-2025 noted geneticist historian of science and fierce opponent of eugenics and his mentor Hermann J. Mueller 1890-1967 Nobel Prize-winning geneticist who first showed exposure to radiation could produce mutations in living organisms ink manuscript note in Mueller’s hand indicating he had ordered a Mendel portrait on April 3. First edition of the first issue of this groundbreaking American scientific journal on genetics which featured Calvin Bridges pioneering work on nondisjunction which offered proofs that genes reside in chromosomes which set up the nomenclature system for naming fly mutants; one of Jennings’ foundational works proving that conjugation resulted in new combinations of hereditary traits and finally Cushing’s important work on tracing kindred with symphalangism or inheritance of genetic disorder causing straight fingers from fusion of finger joints. These early papers for clinical genetics served as excellent studies for launching this key periodical which would continue to be advanced and influenced prominent American biologists and geneticists in Jennings and Morgan’s circles. Shull was a prominent early geneticist who began as a botanical investigator at the Carnegie Institution and later with Princeton from 1915 to 1942 applying the principles of Mendelian heredity in analyzing the inheritance of quantitative characters in corn and later influenced hybridization techniques in tandem with Luther Burbank.
