1878pp. 396, 8 [Publisher's catalogue]. Very XLib. Some signatures loose. 12mo. Original full cloth binding. Spine worn with loss. Hardbound. Asa Gray (1810-1888) is considered the most important American botanist of the 19th century. Gray and Charles Darwin met at Kew, introduced by Joseph Dalton Hooker. Darwin then wrote to Gray requesting information about the distribution of various species of American flowers, which Gray provided, and which was helpful in providing information for the development of Darwin's theory. This was the beginning of an extensive lifelong correspondence. This original 1878 edition is rather scarce. It is a shame that it is only a fair copy. SCIENCE BX 2

1997Best.-Nr. S12976Knoxville:: University of Tennessee Press 1997. 1997. 8vo. xxi 184 pp. Frontis. index. Tan gilt-stamped cloth dust-jacket. Fine. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR on the title. Tracing the growth of creationism in America as a political movement this book explains why the particularly American phenomenon of anti-evolution has succeeded as a popular belief. Conceptualizing the history of creationism as a strategic public relations campaign Edward Caudill examines why this movement has captured the imagination of the American public from the explosive Scopes trial of 1925 to today's heated battles over public school curricula. Caudill shows how creationists have appealed to cultural values such as individual rights and admiration of the rebel spirit thus spinning creationism as a viable even preferable alternative to evolution. / In particular Caudill argues that the current anti-evolution campaign follows a template created by Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan the Scopes trial's primary combatants. Their celebrity status and dexterity with the press prefigured the Moral Majority's 1980s media blitz more recent staunchly creationist politicians such as Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee and creationists' savvy use of the Internet and museums to publicize their cause. Drawing from trial transcripts media sources films and archival documents Intelligently Designed highlights the importance of historical myth in popular culture religion and politics and situates this nearly century-old debate in American cultural history. publisher. / Edward Caudill is a professor of journalism and electronic media at the University of Tennessee Knoxville.

2012In-16 (cm. 18,70), brossura illustrata, pp. XX, 927, (5), con illustrazioni in bianco e nero fuori testo. In ottimo stato (nice copy). Basandosi su anni di studio di materiali d'archivio, editi e inediti, Desmond e Moore ricostruiscono in questo volume il percorso umano, filosofico e scientifico dell'autore dell'"Origine delle specie", descrivendo al contempo l'ambiente familiare, il contesto storico e la maturazione scientifica del grande naturalista inglese. Scopriamo così un uomo tormentato e prudente, ma anche lucidamente consapevole dell'importanza epocale della propria teoria, quell'evoluzione per selezione naturale che oggi è riconosciuta come una delle teorie scientifiche più audaci, durature e dirompenti del mondo moderno.

2018ril. A ben oltre un secolo dalla sua morte, le idee di Charles Darwin sono ancora in grado di ispirare scoperte scientifiche, ma di suscitare anche accesi e violenti dibattiti, quasi sempre di natura ideologica. Ma chi era veramente Darwin? E, soprattutto, in quale contesto storico- culturale nacque e maturò la sua rivoluzionaria teoria dell'evoluzione delle specie per selezione naturale? È proprio a queste domande che dà risposta la biografia di Janet Browne, restituendo un'immagine quanto mai vivida e a tutto tondo di Darwin. Una biografia definitiva dell'uomo e dello scienziato, che dipana l'enigma centrale della sua carriera, ovvero come questo tipico gentiluomo inglese di provincia finì per diventare un pensatore capace di sfidare i principi fondamentali della scienza e della religione. Janet Browne racconta ogni minimo dettaglio della vita di Darwin: dall'infanzia alla formazione, dall'avventurosa storia del viaggio intorno al mondo sul Beagle (1831-1836) alla pubblicazione dell'Origine delle specie (1859), il suo capolavoro, e dell'Origine dell'uomo (1871). Sullo sfondo dell'Inghilterra vittoriana, da questa completa e suggestiva biografia Darwin emerge come un genio tranquillo e riservato, come uno scienziato consumato da un'impellente necessità di comprendere la complessità delle forme viventi attraverso un costante lavoro di osservazione e di sperimentazione.
