ON THE ORIGIN OF FORM(ISBN=) 英文原版

　　”On the Origin of Form “presents a new account of evolution
and the origin of life based on the premise that the body form of
any species is encoded not in the DNA but in the patterned
structure of the primordial germ plasm–the universal predecessor
of the egg. Two hundred years after Johann von Goethe’s Faustian
quest for the “Urform,” the archetypal design underlying all living
form, comes the recent discovery that organic forms are derived
from a unique, self-organized, pre-embryonic structure. This
explanation of evolution is an alternative to the now widely
questioned Neo-Darwinist theory of natural selection of random
mutations. This new model is based on known, relatively
uncomplicated scientific principles and is easily accessible to the
interested layman. Included are sixty-four pages of illustrations
that support this new theory. For additional information, please
