by Peter J. Bowler

The Eclipse of Darwinism: Anti-Darwinian Evolution Theories in the Decades Around 1900 Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Describing the variety of influences that drove scientists to challenge Darwin's conclusions, Bowler reevaluates the influence of social forces on the scientific community and explores the broad philosophical, ideological, and social implications of scientific theories.
