520 1 "In 1972 Stephen Jay Gould took the scientific world by
storm with his paper on punctuated equilibrium, written
with Niles Eldredge. Challenging a core assumption of
Darwin's theory of evolution, it launched the career of
one of the most influential evolutionary biologists of our
time - perhaps the best known since Darwin."
520 8 "Now, thirty-five years later, and five years after his
untimely death, Punctuated Equilibrium (originally
published as the central chapter of Gould's masterwork,
The Structure of Evolutionary Theory) offers his only book
-length testament on an idea he fiercely promoted,
repeatedly refined, and tirelessly defended. Punctuated
equilibrium holds that the great majority of species
originate in geological moments (punctuations) and persist
in stasis. The idea was hotly debated because it forced
biologists to rethink entrenched ideas about evolutionary
patterns and processes. But as Gould shows here in his
typically exhaustive coverage, the idea has become the
foundation of a new view of hierarchical selection and
macroevolution."--Jacket.
