Excerpt from Eugenio Rignano Upon the Inheritance of Acquired Characters: A Hypothesis of Heredity, Development, and Assimilation
"Some deny flatly the possibility of ever arriving at an understanding of the nature of life. But if we ask ourselves in what this understanding of the nature of life could consist, from the point of view of positive philosophy, we have no difficulty in recognizing that such an understanding must be reduced to comparing vital phenomena with some physico-chemical model already known, suitably modified by the particular special conditions imposed upon it so that just these special conditions shall determine the differences which exist between this vital phenomenon and that phenomenon of the inorganic world most closely related to it. If this be so, it is then the duty of science emphatically to refuse to give up the attempt to understand the nature of living matter, for that would be to belie the Spirit of all scientific endeavor. For whether it be clearly recognized or not, it is just this search for the nature of the vital principle which properly constitutes the principal object and the final goal of all biologic study in general." - E. Rignano, in "Acquired Characters," p. 334.

Eugenio Rignano Upon the Inheritance of Acquired Characters (Classic Reprint)
Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: Forgotten Books, London, Reino Unido
Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book contends that cells and body parts continually communicate with each other to inform development and growth. The author provides a detailed exploration of this topic, challenging prevailing theories that cells are predetermined in their development and function. Instead, the author posits that cells function as part of a larger system of control, one which coordinates the development of organisms and allows for adaptation. The concept of biological inheritance is also examined, with the author arguing against the notion that acquired traits cannot be passed down through generations. Through its innovative theory of biological development, this book casts new light on biology's central preoccupation with the question of life itself. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330142226_0
