Eugenio Rignano Upon the Inheritance of Acquired Characters: A Hypothesis of Heredity, Development, and Assimilation (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Synopsis
A bold, theory-driven look at how traits may pass from generation to generation, beyond simple selection.
This nontechnical work presents a biogenetic hypothesis that aims to explain inheritance, development, and memory by tying together biology, chemistry, and philosophy. It discusses how ontogeny may reflect phylogeny and how a fundamental mechanism could underlie the inheritance of acquired characters, offering a fresh lens on long-standing debates.
- How development can echo species history and reveal hidden connections between organisms.
- A proposed mechanism that links heredity with assimilation, growth, and memory in living matter.
- A comparative look at major theories, including natural selection and Lamarckian ideas, with careful analysis.
- An effort to unite biology with positive philosophy to address some of biology’s most fundamental questions.
