Excerpt from Use-Inheritance: Illustrated by the Direction of Hair on the Bodies of Animals
I would submit that the value of these facts, taken as a test of Weismannism, rests upon their want of importance to the animals in which they are found. Further evidential value attaches to them from the fact that certain of them are stereotyped upon species others very similar are in process of development at the present time, and the factors that may be at work in producing them are open to investigation. This is a form of evidence too much wanting in most of the great problems of organic development.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the concept of non-inheritance of acquired characteristics in the development of traits in animals, particularly the development of hair patterns. The author questions the universality of Weismannism, a theory of heredity that asserts the separation of germ cells from body cells, which was groundbreaking in solidifying the concepts of genetics. Through detailed observation of hair patterns in mammals, primarily domesticated animals and specimens in the London Zoo, the author posits that certain characteristics cannot be explained solely by natural selection and instead can be attributed to the effects of habit and use. The book presents evidence for the idea that acquired characteristics can be inherited, challenging a fundamental tenet of Weismannism and opening up new avenues of understanding in the study of heredity and evolution. 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. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330026427_0
