4.0 out of 5 stars
Biological Malthusianism,
By Professor Joseph L. McCauley "Joseph L. McCauley" (Austria+Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Darwin's Metaphor (Hardcover)
This book discusses the origins of Darwin's ideas of competition, natural selection and adaptation in the context of Malthus's socio-economic ideas. See also 'Origins of Mendelism' by R. Olby and 'The Mendellian Revolution' by P. J. Bowler for the contrast with Mendel's ideas. Darwin was influenced by vague ideas from economics, whereas Mendel, who independently laid the groundwork for understanding evolution at the cellular level, started with a foundation in physics.
