A Mechanico-Physiological Theory Of Organic Evolution (1898)

A Mechanico-Physiological Theory Of Organic Evolution is a scientific book written by Carl Von Nageli and published in 1898. The book presents a theory of evolution that is based on the principles of mechanics and physiology. Nageli argues that evolution is driven by physical and chemical processes that are inherent in living organisms. He believes that these processes are responsible for the development of new forms of life, and that natural selection plays a secondary role in the process. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Nageli's theory. Topics covered include the role of the cell in evolution, the importance of variation and heredity, and the relationship between evolution and the environment. The book is written in a clear and concise style, and is intended for a scientific audience. It is considered to be an important contribution to the field of evolutionary biology, and has influenced the work of many subsequent scientists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
