Tietoa tästä e-kirjasta

Complex Multicellularity & Vertebrate Emergence explores one of evolution's greatest transitions: the emergence of a developmental mode capable of building increasingly complex organisms. The first pulse documents the rise of developmentally complex multicellularity, a developmental mode that became characteristic of animals, in which cells migrate to specific locations to assemble a body plan. The second pulse follows the emergence of the vertebrate Bauplan, characterized by directed locomotion, neural centralization, and a dynamic head–body organization. Through the lens of logarithmic evolutionary time, this volume uncovers the deep continuity linking the first developmentally complex multicellular organisms to the earliest vertebrate body plan—which would over millions of years lead to the human form.

Tietoja kirjoittajasta

With degrees in Philosophy and Psychology, the author has long been dedicated to interdisciplinary and synthetic scholarship. His published work spans evolutionary theory, archaeology, cosmology, history, and symbolic anthropology, seeking broad patterns that connect the sciences and the humanities. He previously published in World Futures the article "The Fragility of Evolution," which re-envisioned evolution around the concept of fragility and the protection of vulnerable periods of change. His subsequent research has expanded this inquiry through the development of a logarithmic framework for evolutionary time, exploring the possibility that major transitions in the history of life unfold in a regular, accelerating pattern.
