因为教会的创世论和达尔文的进化论有很多的争议, 特别到图书馆找到了达尔文的原著和其他书籍.
<原罪的基因> 一书是我看到的最好的. 不知道有没有中译本. 很想推荐给中文的读者. 作者是获得过诺奖的资深望重的老教授.
The Violinnist's Thumb
and other lost tales of love, war and genius, as written by our genetic code
SAM KEAN
572.8 KEA
Part I ACGT and You, how to read a genetic score
1. Genes, freaks, DNA: how do living things pass down traits to their children?
2. The near death of Darwin: why did geneticists try to kill natural selection?
3. Them's the DNA breaks: how does nature read and misread DNA?
4. The musical score of DNA: what kinds of information does DNA store?
Part II Our Animal Past: Making things that crawl and frolic and kill
5. DNA vindication: why did life evolve so slowly then explode in complexity?
6. The survivors, the livers: what's our most ancient and important DNA?
7. The Machiavelli microbe: how much human DNA is actually human?
8. Love and atavisms: what genes make mammals mammals?
9. Humanzees and other near misses: when did humans break away from monkeys, and why?
Part III Genes and Geniuses: how humans became all to human
10. Scarlet ACGT: why did humans almost go extinct?
11. Size matters: how did humans get such grotesquely large brains?
12. The art of the gene: how deep in our DNA is artistic genius?
Part IV The Oracle of DNA: genetics in the past, present and future
13. The past is prologue - sometimes: what can and can't genes teach us about historical heroes?
14. Three billion little pieces: why don't humans have more genes that other species?
15. Easy come, easy go? How come identical twins aren't identical?
16. Life as we do and don't know it: what the heck will happen now.
Epilogue: genomics gets personal
