  • Yasha Gall, Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975
    Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975 Yasha Gall Published by Nauka, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2004 Reproduced as an e-book with kind permission of Nauka Science editor: Academician AL Takhtajan Preface by the Science Editor The 20th century was the epoch of discovery in evolutionary biology, marked by many fundamental investigations. Of special significance were the works of AN Severtsov, SS Chetverikov, S Wright, JBS Haldane, G De Beer JS Huxley and R Goldschmidt. Among the general works on evolutionary theory, the one of greatest breadth was Julian Huxley’s book Evolution: The Modern Synthesis (1942). Huxley was one of the first to analyze the mechanisms of macro-evolutionary processes and discuss the evolutionary role of neoteny in terms of developmental genetics (the speed of gene action). Neoteny—the most important mechanism of heritable variation of ontogenesis—has great macro-evolutionary consequences. A Russian translation of Huxley’s book on evolution was prepared for publication by Professor VV Alpatov. The manuscript of the translation had already been sent to production when the August session of the VASKNIL in 1948 burst forth—a destructive moment in the history of biology in our country. The publication was halted, and the manuscript disappeared. I remember well a meeting with Huxley in 1945 in Moscow and Leningrad during the celebratory jubilee at the Academy of Sciences. He was deeply disturbed by the “blossoming” of Lysenkoist obscurantism in biology. It is also important to note that in the 1950s Huxley developed original concepts for controlling the birth rate of the Earth’s population. He openly declared the necessity of forming an international institute at the United Nations, since the global ecosystem already could not sustain the pressure of human “activity” and, together with humanity, might itself die.

  • From Logos to Bios: Hellenic Philosophy and Evolutionary Biology
    From Logos to Bios: Hellenic Philosophy and Evolutionary Biology by Wynand Albertus de Beer submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of D Litt et Phil in the subject Religious Studies at the University of South Africa Supervisor: Prof Danie Goosen February 2015 Dedicated with grateful acknowledgements to my supervisor, Professor Danie Goosen, for his wise and patient guidance and encouragement throughout my doctoral research, and to the examiners of my thesis for their helpful comments and suggestions. From Logos to Bios: Hellenic Philosophy and Evolutionary Biology by W.A. de Beer Degree: D Litt et Phil Subject: Religious Studies Supervisor: Prof Danie Goosen Summary: This thesis deals with the relation of Hellenic philosophy to evolutionary biology. The first part entails an explication of Hellenic cosmology and metaphysics in its traditional understanding, as the Western component of classical Indo-European philosophy. It includes an overview of the relevant contributions by the Presocratics, Plato, Aristotle, and the Neoplatonists, focussing on the structure and origin of both the intelligible and sensible worlds. Salient aspects thereof are the movement from the transcendent Principle into the realm of Manifestation by means of the interaction between Essence and Substance; the role of the Logos, being the equivalent of Plato’s Demiurge and Aristotle’s Prime Mover, in the cosmogonic process; the interaction between Intellect and Necessity in the formation of the cosmos; the various kinds of causality contributing to the establishment of physical reality; and the priority of being over becoming, which in the case of living organisms entails the primacy of soul over body.

  • The Evolutionary Embryologist Gavin Rylands De Beer (1899–1972)
    Homology and Heterochrony: The Evolutionary Embryologist Gavin Rylands de Beer (1899–1972) Ingo Brigandt Department of History and Philosophy of Science University of Pittsburgh 1017 Cathedral of Learning Pittsburgh, PA 15260 USA E-mail: [email protected] Preprint of an article published in 2006 in the Journal of Experimental Zoology (Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution) 306B: 317–328 www.interscience.Wiley.com GAVIN RYLANDS DE BEER (1899–1972) 2 Abstract The evolutionary embryologist Gavin Rylands de Beer can be viewed as one of the forerunners of modern evolutionary developmental biology in that he posed crucial questions and proposed relevant answers about the causal relationship between ontogeny and phylogeny. In his developmental approach to the phylogenetic phenomenon of homology, he emphasized that homology of morphological structures is to be identified neither with the sameness of the underlying developmental processes nor with the homology of the genes that are in involved in the development of the structures. De Beer’s work on developmental evolution focused on the notion of heterochrony, arguing that paedomorphosis increases morphological evolvability and is thereby an important mode of evolution that accounts for the origin of many taxa, including higher taxa. GAVIN RYLANDS DE BEER (1899–1972) 3 Gavin Rylands de Beer (Fig. 1) was born in England in 1899, but spent the first 13 years of his life in France, where his father worked as a correspondent of a telegraph company. After returning to England, he went to Harrow School, where he became interested in zoology. In 1917 he entered Magdalen College at Oxford, graduating in 1922 after a leave for serving in the British Army during World War I.

  • Gavin Rylands De Beer (1899-1972) [1]
    Published on The Embryo Project Encyclopedia (https://embryo.asu.edu) Gavin Rylands de Beer (1899-1972) [1] By: Kearl, Megan Keywords: Biography [2] Evolution [3] Zoology [4] Gavin de Beer was an English zoologist known for his contributions toe volution [5] and embryology [6], in particular for showing the inadequacy of the germ layer theory as it was then proposed. He was born in London, England, on 1 November 1899, but was raised for his first thirteen years in France where his father worked for a telegraph company. He entered Magdalen College, Oxford, in 1917 but his studies were soon interrupted by World War I [7]. After serving in the military, he returned to Oxford where he studied under Edwin Goodrich [8]. He graduated in 1922 but stayed on as a fellow of Merton College and to teach in the Zoology Department. He was the Jenkinson Memorial Lecturer between 1926 and 1938. During his time at Oxford, de Beer authored his first major work,A n Introduction to Experimental Embryology [9], which was published in 1926. The book contained de Beer’s observations that certain cartilage and bone cells are derived from an area of the ectoderm [10], now known as the neural crest [11], instead of the mesoderm [12], as germ layer theory then asserted. After the publication of this book, he began favoring comparative and descriptive methods over experimentation in his research. In 1930 he released another book, Embryology and Evolution, later retitled Embryos and Ancestors. This book contained de Beer’s ideas about his developmental theory of evolution [5], which combined Mendelian genetics with Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection [13].

  • Mendel's Opposition to Evolution and to Darwin
    Mendel's Opposition to Evolution and to Darwin B. E. Bishop Although the past decade or so has seen a resurgence of interest in Mendel's role in the origin of genetic theory, only one writer, L. A. Callender (1988), has concluded that Mendel was opposed to evolution. Yet careful scrutiny of Mendel's Pisum pa- per, published in 1866, and of the time and circumstances in which it appeared suggests not only that It Is antievolutlonary In content, but also that it was specif- ically written in contradiction of Darwin's book The Origin of Species, published in 1859, and that Mendel's and Darwin's theories, the two theories which were united in the 1940s to form the modern synthesis, are completely antithetical. Mendel does not mention Darwin in his Pi- [Mendel] in so far as they bore on his anal- sum paper (although he does in his letters ysis of the evolutionary role of hybrids." to Nlgeli, the famous Swiss botanist with Olby's (1979) article, entitled "Mendel whom he initiated a correspondence, and No Mendelian?," led to a number of revi- in his Hieracium paper, published In 1870), sionist views of Mendel's work and his in- but he states unambiguously in his intro- tentions, although no agreement has been duction that his objective is to contribute reached.

  • Biological and Physical Constraints on the Evolution of Form in Plants and Animals
    24th ALTENBERG WORKSHOP IN THEORETICAL BIOLOGY Biological and Physical Constraints on the Evolution of Form in Plants and Animals organized by Jeffrey H. Schwartz and Bruno Maresca September 23-26, 2010 Konrad Lorenz Institute for Evolution and Cognition Research Altenberg, Austria 24th Altenberg Workshop in Theoretical Biology Topic and aims Although the comparative study of morphology has for centuries been a viable intel- lectual pursuit, inquiry into the emergence of the form or shape of structures under scrutiny still often remains a disconnected endeavor. For example, during the 1970s and especially 1980s the guiding principle was Lewis Wolpert’s “pattern formation” model, in which the focus was on positional information and variation in what William Bateson referred to as “repeated parts.” For developmental biology, the notion of naïve cells being imbued with the potential to generate structure and form from an extrinsic mor-phogenetic source was challenged by the perspective that the emergence of structure and form was at least as much due to properties intrinsic to cells and between cells in time and space. Later in the 1980s and into the 1990s, the discovery in animals and then plants of homeobox genes and their roles in both generating positional information and affecting the development of repeated parts seemingly opened up new vistas for understanding morphology and its use in systematics and phylogenetic reconstruction. For example, with the identification of the gene Antennapedia in insects (Drosophila) and its orthologue, the HOX-gene family, in vertebrates, comparative morphologists and developmental geneticists rushed to generate diagrams of nested sets of clades on which ancestors with hypothesized regulatory gene activity producing different types of appendages could be represented.
