Who Are the Neanderthals, Really? consists of a collection of illustrations and commentary about Neanderthals from Paleolithic times to today. After an introduction describing how and where Neanderthals lived, the book features about 100 illustrations divided into five sections. Each section of photos and illustrations is introduced with some commentary. These images present an intriguing picture of the Neanderthals from paleontologists, anthropologists, historians, social commentators, and artists.

Why did the "missing link" evade Charles Darwin? This book takes the listener on a journey to evaluate clues given in the Bible, ancient archaeology, and Sumerian texts written in code 4,000 years ago. These clues shake the foundations of conventional science, history and religion. Adam Decoded invites the listener to participate in solving the age-long question of man's origin. Who are we? Where are we from? Who really were Adam and Eve, and where is the Garden of Eden?

Adam = Alien is a groundbreaking book, exploring possible evidence of our extraterrestrial origins. In the vein of Erich Von Däniken, Lloyd Pye, and Zecharia Sitchin, it explores human origin, UFOs, pyramids, religion, science, and our culture's and government's suppression of its proof. It is written by a former skeptic whose research has concluded that most of what he has learned regarding the subject matter above was completely wrong. This book is a wake-up call to you - the open-minded, inquisitive thinker.

Presents a critical analysis of Michael Behe's mind centered theory of evolution. Focuses on his latest book, Darwin Devolves. Also includes a critique of Behe's admonition for Catholics to follow the Church versus science and reason when there is a controversy that goes against Christian teachings.

Eight Dynamic Patterns of Living: Base Elements of True Civilization (Essays on Law, Policy and Psychiatry, Vol. 2, 2018) is a study on native cultures with a specific focus on their lifestyle patterns. The study required several years of research on shamanism and aboriginal cultures for providing the evidence that there are eight dynamic patterns of living that are universally respected and applied by major tribal cultures all over the world.

This is the first in a series of "mini" audiobooks on scientists who have provided us with great insights into how nature works. The first audiobook is on Charles Darwin's understanding of natural selection as excerpted from his classic tome On the Origin of Species. Includes a brief introduction by Professor David Christopher Lane, PhD.

The next fertile undiscovered frontier of science is the study of how the individual (you) naturally inhabit this universe. This topic speaks to the really interesting question of how any living individual came to be where you are in the form that you are.

At present people perceive the world full of many calamities and above all with much uncertainty. This is due to the worrying deterioration of society, economy, and security. The future of people, as well as that of humanity itself, is not so clear. This, of course, can undermine the desire to stay ahead, because some think that there is not much that can be done to improve the situation.

I had a crazy uncle, like most everyone does. Many of his stories were about a big hairy monster that lived in the woods behind his cabin in the woods. He called the monster Bigfoot, a name I thought he made up when I was eight years old because I hadn’t heard the word before that. He had a Bigfoot encounter and was worried about abduction and attack all the time. My story takes place while I was in college, but it started way before that when Uncle Chip was still alive.

This audiobook contains two essays from Thomas H. Huxley, the famous defender of all things Darwinian, explaining at length why Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection is a tremendous breakthrough in biology and why his book, On Origin of Species, is a worthy companion to such tomes as Newton's Principia. Clear and informative essays.

Today's generation is bombarded with theories about humankind and its origins. The danger for Christians lies in the wealth of misinformation and miscommunication about simple biblical truths such as: (1) How and when the world began, (2) Whether humans are unique or merely a happenstance of evolution, (3) The distinction between humankind and other living creatures, (4) The evolution of life on this planet, and (5) The spiritual dimensions of the human soul.

Jamais Darwin, penseur de la survie par la transformation, comme l'explique volontiers Patrick Tort, n'a été autant sollicité que depuis que les nations les plus arrogantes ressentent sourdement qu'elles vont périr si elles ne transforment pas leur rapport aux autres ainsi qu'à la nature. Car Darwin n'est pas seulement le génial concepteur de l'explication des transformations du monde vivant par la sélection naturelle.

This book provides a wide overview of Darwin's views on a variety of subjects. It also draws out some of the implications of his groundbreaking work on psychology and philosophy.

This delightful and insightful series of essays on the practice of science was written by one of the great minds of the 19th century, Thomas Henry Huxley, a great friend and defender of Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution by natural selection. It includes Huxley's autobiography and essays covering improving natural knowledge; a liberal education; on a piece of chalk; the principle subjects of education; the method of scientific investigation.

The new field of evolutionary philosophy, unlike its aborted predecessors of the past, is primarily concerned with understanding why Homo sapiens are philosophical in the first place. It is not focused on advocating some specific future reform, but rather in uncovering why humans are predisposed to ask so many questions which, at least at the present stage, cannot be answered.

Le 24 novembre 1859 paraît à Londres "L'Origine des espèces par le moyen de la sélection naturelle, ou la préservation des races favorisées dans la lutte pour la vie". L'auteur du livre, Charles Darwin (1809-1882), est un naturaliste de cinquante ans qu'un voyage autour du monde particulièrement riche en découvertes et l'œuvre originale édifiée à sa suite ont déjà fait connaître largement en Angleterre et en Europe continentale. C'est ce livre toutefois qui fera de son auteur le plus célèbre penseur de l'histoire naturelle qu'ait connu le monde depuis Buffon, et le principal bâtisseur - après Lamarck - , du transformisme moderne ou théorie de l'évolution des espèces vivantes.

How is it that we came to be here? The search for answers to that question has preoccupied humans for millennia. Scientists have sought clues in the genes of living things; in the physical environments of Earth, from mountaintops to the depths of the ocean; in the chemistry of this world and those nearby; in the tiniest particles of matter; and in the deepest reaches of space. In Islands of the Cosmos, Dale A. Russell traces a path from the dawn of the universe to speculation about our future on this planet.

Imbarcatosi sul Beagle, per una spedizione del governo inglese finalizzata alle rilevazioni idrologiche delle coste delle Americhe, Charles Darwin mise a frutto il suo interesse per l'osservazione della natura, cominciato a svilupparsi già durante l'infanzia. La spedizione gli permise di fare scoperte eccezionali attraverso il lungo viaggio, durato cinque anni.

Nach fast vier Jahren Wartezeit ist es endlich so weit: Stephen Hawking legt zusammen mit Leonard Mlodinow sein neues Werk vor...

This gives a brief and quick overview of evolutionary theories of the origins of early life at the microscopic levels and the view of how organic substances can come from inorganic substances.
