The Biological Problem Of Today - Oscar Hertwig - Bog

""The Biological Problem of Today: Preformation or Epigenesis? The Basis of a Theory of Organic Development"" is a book written by Oscar Hertwig in 1896. The book discusses the two competing theories of development in biology: preformation and epigenesis. Preformation is the idea that organisms develop from pre-existing structures, while epigenesis is the idea that organisms develop from a process of gradual differentiation and growth. Hertwig argues in favor of epigenesis and provides evidence to support this theory. He also proposes a new theory of organic development based on epigenesis. The book is a significant contribution to the field of developmental biology and remains relevant today. It is written in a clear and concise style and is accessible to both scientists and non-scientists alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
