Positive Or Negative Theory Of Natural Selection
1,524 words
In his most famous book On the Origin of Species,
Darwin included four major arguments: that new
species appear; that these new species have
evolved from older species; that the evolution of
species is the result of natural selection; and
that natural selection depends upon variations and
the maintenance of variation in spite of the
tendency of natural selection to eliminate unfit
variants (403). After Charles Darwin published On
the Origin of Species in 1859, Herbert Spencer
(1820 - 1903) took ...

could produce similar effects, and thus explain
the development of new species without reference
to supernatural in...
