Book details

Book Price $0 : Ernst Heinrich Haeckel (1834â??1919) Had An Expansive Collection Of Interests: Embryology, Comparative Anatomy, Marine Biology, Philosophy, Medicine, And Illustrative Art. However, Haeckelâ??s Career Was Solidified Upon Reading â??On The Origin Of Species By Means Of Natural Selectionâ? By Charles Darwin. He Became A Champion For The Theory Of Evolution, And A Professor Of Zoology At The University Of Jena. Despite A Position Of Prestige In The 19th Century Scientific Community, Haeckelâ??s Works Were Not Without Controversy. He Favored A Belief In Spontaneous Generation: That Organic Life Can Arise From Inorganic Matter; And, His Biogenetic Law â?? Embryological Development (ontogeny) Recapitulates Adult Stages Of Organisms From Which It Evolved (phylogeny) â?? Has Since Become A Biological Myth. In â??The History Of Creationâ?, Ernst Haeckel Presents His Views On His Peers And Their Doctrines â?? Often Reverent, Sometimes Scathing â?? And His Scientific Perspectives Of Life On Earth. â??The History Of Creationâ? Was Originally Published As Two Volumes In 1880; However, It Is Often Reprinted As A Single Unabridged Volume.
