Les espècies evolucionen, canvien amb el pas del temps i així ho va constatar i argumentar Charles Darwin. El que té entre les mans és una obra que intenta integrar dues grans visions de l?evolució que sovint es presenten enfrontades. D?una banda, la visió que emfatitza la contingència, els accidents congelats i la irreversibilitat, i determina una ciència eminentment històrica. De l?altra, la visió més racio¬nal, basada en la comprensió dels processos d?auto¬organització semblants als d?altres sistemes físics allunyats de l?equilibri termodinàmic, i que determina una ciència estructuralista. El resultat és una visió més rica i plural del fenomen evolutiu, en la qual es posen en evidència els paradigmes clàssics. Una revisió acurada de la visió més ortodoxa de l?evolució a la recerca d?explicacions teòriques que van més enllà dels límits de la biologia.
What would happen if you had a child and left him or her unattended without care or attention for a day? How about a couple of weeks? Even worse, how about several months or years? I know, it's almost too cruel to think about. As kids, we're in full connection with the child inside of us. We run, we play, we chase after things that we enjoy and love. We may not realize it, but we're deeply connected to who we are and what we want. As we grow older, however, we lose this connection and leave ourselves unattended for much too long. We are introduced to words, and words have narrow meanings. Time and time again we've been labeled by our peers and parents through the use of these words. This has happened for so long that we act as if we're programmed to follow them. In short, we lose sight of who we really are and what we really want. This book serves as an invitation to a journey of self-discovery. My aim is that my readers will be able to: Disassociate from labels others have placed on them that are hindering their journey of self-exploration. Stop reliving negative karmic cycles and disassociate from past experiences. Learn about their personal VITALS and preferences in the human hierarchy of needs. Find who they are and what they want in every area of their lives through 200 carefully designed questions. Finally, reconnect with themselves and strengthen their sense of self. Welcome to Self Discovery Journal.
When WILHELM RUHLAND developed his plan for an Encyclopedia of Plant Physiol ogy more than three decades ago, biology could still be conveniently subdivided into classical areas. Even within plant physiology, subdivisions were not too difficult to make, and general principles could be covered sufficiently in the two introductory volumes of the Encyclopedia on the physical and chemical basis of cell biology. But the situation changed rapidly even during the 12-year publication period of the Encyclopedia (1955-1967). The new molecular direction of genetics and structural research on biopolymers had an integrating effect on all other biological fields, including plant physiology, and it became increasingly difficult to keep previously distinct areas separated. RUHLAND'S overall plan included 18 volumes and about 22,000 pages. It covered the entire field of plant physiology, in most cases from the very beginning. But, as each volume appeared, it was clear that its content would soon be outdated.
In The Fossil Trail, Ian Tattersall, the head of the Anthropology Department at the American Museum of Natural History, takes us on a sweeping tour of the study of human evolution, offering a colorful history of fossil discoveries and a revealing insider's look at how these finds have been interpreted - and misinterpreted - through time. All the major figures and discoveries are here. We meet Lamarck and Cuvier and Darwin (we learn that Darwin's theory of evolution, though a bombshell, was very congenial to a Victorian ethos of progress), right up to modern theorists such as Niles Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould.
Because I understand the importance of meeting new people and keeping friendships, I have written Small Talk Made Simple. In this book, I have broken down the art of small talk into a step by step procedure anyone can easily navigate through.
If you are tired of walking on eggshells through life because of your anxiety... then keep reading. I know what it's like to miss out on opportunities because of the risk of embarrassing yourself. I know how annoying it is to have your extrovert friends tell you to 'loosen up and get another drink'. And I definitely know what it's like to hate yourself for being different from everyone else. A few years ago, I was severely depressed and needed a way out. In search for answers I turned to self-help. Not only were most books on the topic too preachy and full of woo-woo, they didn't suggest rock-solid, actionable things you must do to get ahead as a shy introvert. However, my search continued, and, in time, it yielded interesting findings- findings that I later applied to my life and transformed it as a result. Today, social anxiety is a thing of the past for me and depression is nothing but a transient mood. And guess what? Getting here is easier than you think, even if you've been told otherwise. This is why I have written Social Anxiety and Introverts: What Depressed Introverts Don't Know About Living Anxiety Free and Finding Happiness.
