Why evolution is more than just a theory: it is a fact
In all the current highly publicized debates about creationism and its descendant "intelligent design," there is an element of the controversy that is rarely mentioned-the evidence , the empirical truth of evolution by natural selection. Even Richard Dawkins and Stephen Jay Gould, while extolling the beauty of evolution and examining case studies, have not focused on the evidence itself. Yet the proof is vast, varied, and magnificent, drawn from many different fields of science. Scientists are observing species splitting into two and are finding more and more fossils capturing change in the past-dinosaurs that have sprouted feathers, fish that have grown limbs.
Why Evolution Is True weaves together the many threads of modern work in genetics, paleontology, geology, molecular biology, and anatomy that demonstrate the "indelible stamp" of the processes first proposed by Darwin. In crisp, lucid prose accessible to a wide audience, Why Evolution Is True dispels common misunderstandings and fears about evolution and clearly confirms that this amazing process of change has been firmly established as a scientific truth.

读后感
从小就被灌输了进化论的观念，所以对接受演化论没有任何障碍。只是从前只知其然，而不知其所以然。本书用大量翔实的证据来证明演化确实发生过，而且正在发生，同时驳斥神创论观点，非常有说服力。 当我的儿子学到演化论的时候，我会以本书作为他的课外读物。 对我而言，读这...
评分《为什么要相信达尔文》一书的首版是2009年，2009年对于达尔文和他创造的演化科学是不同寻常的一年，2月12日是他诞辰200周年纪念日，11月24日是其巨著《物种起源》出版150周年纪念日。芝加哥大学生态与演化生物学系终身教授 杰里•科因，本书的作者，在同年1月出版了这本书，...
评分 评分达尔文学说认为:所有生命都是烟花的产物,而自然选择是演化这一过程的主要推动力 现代演化论的核心不难掌握,它可以被总结诶成为一个单据(虽然有点儿长):一个生活在35亿多年的原始物种可能是一个能够自我复制的分子逐步演化出了地球上的所有物种,其规模随着时间而不断扩大,发散...
评分花一天多时间读完了科因的《为什么要相信达尔文》。 其实原书标题是“为什么进化是真实的？”，现在这个译名也许在市场营销上好一点，但也有差强人意。 至少我比较倾向于达尔文进化论不是进化论的全部，这还不仅仅指达尔文进化论需要补充大量的现代生物进化论的内容，而是生物...
