Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that evolutionary change takes place not through sudden, large-scale mutations, as put forward by the mutation theory, but rather through a slow accumulation of small, gradual variations. The author contends that mutations are often very small, unstable, and difficult to distinguish from ordinary variation. Drawing evidence from genetics, paleontology, and breeding experiments, the author challenges the idea that species can be sharply categorized and instead suggests that they exist on a continuum of variation. By questioning the validity of the mutation theory and offering an alternative perspective on the mechanisms of evolution, this book provides valuable insights into the nature of species and the processes that shape their diversity.
