Darwin showed that humans are part of nature, not above it, and that all animal life, including human, is related by descent from a common ancestor. His ...
Darwin's views on the origin of humans did not rely entirely on selection but had a supplementary set of mechanisms consistent with a selectionist account.
The most important lesson to be learned from evolutionary theory today is a negative one: the theory shows us what scientific explanations need not.
According to the modern theory of evolution, the main mechanisms by which new species appear are mutations and the horizontal gene transport. It is assumed that ...
