Excerpt from On Germinal Selection as a Source of Definite Variation
The present paper was read in the first general meeting of the International Congress Of zoologists at Leyden on September 16, 1895. Several points, which for reasons of brevity were omitted when the paper was read, have been re-embodied in the text, and an Appendix has been added where a number of topics receive fuller treatment than could well be accorded to them in a lecture. The address was first printed in {the Monist for January, 1896, and afterwards in a German pamphlet.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book concerns evolutionary biology and is particularly concerned with the theory of natural selection. The author argues that the theory, as advanced by Darwin and Wallace, is insufficient on its own to explain the development of complex life forms and that another factor must be involved. The author examines the Lamarckian and Weismannian theories of inheritance and provides an alternative theory which he terms "germinal selection." The author claims that this new theory reconciles Lamarckian and Weismannian principles, thereby providing a more comprehensive explanation of evolution. This idea, which was first introduced in an address at the International Congress of Zoologists, was well-received and is considered a significant contribution to the field of evolutionary biology. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of evolutionary biology, genetics, and heredity.
