Summary
Details

Explore the groundbreaking theories of heredity and evolution in August Weismann's ""On Germinal Selection as a Source of Definite Variation."" This seminal work delves into the concept of germinal selection, a key mechanism in understanding how variation arises within populations. Weismann, a pioneering figure in the field of genetics, meticulously examines the role of heredity in shaping the characteristics of organisms.

This book offers a detailed exploration of the relationship between germinal selection and the process of evolution, providing insights into the underlying principles of variation. A cornerstone of evolutionary biology, ""On Germinal Selection"" presents a comprehensive analysis of how specific traits are passed down through generations and how these inherited variations contribute to the overall evolution of species. A valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science, genetics, and the development of evolutionary thought, this meticulously prepared print edition offers a clear and accessible entry point into Weismann's influential ideas.
