物種起源(英文版) 《物種起源》全名《論依據(jù)自然選擇即在生存斗爭中保存優(yōu)良族的物種起源》(On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life),是英國生物學(xué)家查爾斯·達爾文系統(tǒng)闡述生物進化理論基礎(chǔ)的生物學(xué)著作,1859年11月24日在倫敦出版。 查爾斯·羅伯特·達爾文(Charles?Robert?Darwin,1809年2月12日1882年4月19日)?[1]jQuery18303798442811239511_1618900283570,英國生物學(xué)家,進化論的奠基人。曾經(jīng)乘坐貝格爾號艦作了歷時5年的環(huán)球航行,對動植物和地質(zhì)結(jié)構(gòu)等進行了大量的觀察和采集。出版《物種起源》,提出了生物進化論學(xué)說,從而摧毀了各種唯心的神造論以及物種不變論。除了生物學(xué)外,他的理論對人類學(xué)、心理學(xué)、哲學(xué)的發(fā)展都有不容忽視的影響。恩格斯將進化論列為19世紀自然科學(xué)的三大發(fā)現(xiàn)之一(其他兩個是細胞學(xué)說、能量守恒轉(zhuǎn)化定律),對人類有杰出的貢獻。 Table of Contents PREFACE .............................................................................................. 001 INTRODUCTION ............................................................................... 015 CHAPTER I VARIATION UNDER DOMESTICATION ........................................... 021 CAUSES OF VARIABILITY...............................................................022 EFFECTS OF HABIT AND OF THE USE OR DISUSE OF PARTS; CORRELATED VARIATION; INHERITANCE .......027 CHARACTER OF DOMESTIC VARIETIES; DIFFICULTY OF DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN VARIETIES AND SPECIES; ORIGIN OF DOMESTIC VARIETIES FROM ONE OR MORE SPECIES...............................................................032 BREEDS OF THE DOMESTIC PIGEON, THEIR DIFFERENCES AND ORIGIN .....................................................037 PRINCIPLES OF SELECTION ANCIENTLY FOLLOWED, AND THEIR EFFECTS .................................................................. 046 UNCONSCIOUS SELECTION.......................................................... 051
