Description

This book makes me sick! Its an insult to Gould's life and career. This is just one portion of a much larger book! Gould's reasoning is very dialectical. The first half of "The Sturcture of Evolutionary Theory" is on the history of Evolutionary biology. Cutting that out of the book is just disgusting. He never would have wanted this or okay'd it. I understand that the price of The Structure is high, and there needs to be a cheaper paperback version, but this is not the way. If need be, cut the book into two volumes as a paperback, and drop the price. Don't gut his book and sell some abridged version. If you want to read this book, buy the structure!
