Dobbs, David. Reef Madness: Charles
Darwin, Alexander Agassiz, and the Meaning of Coral.
New York: Pantheon, 2005.
Before
he published his theory of evolution by natural selection,
Darwin made his scientific debut with an article about the
formation of coral reefs. A rival theory was perpetuated by
Louis Agassiz, a staunch creationist. The rivalry between
these two extended to Louis' son Alexander, who made it his
life work to prove Darwin wrong--both about coral and
about natural selection. A very interesting look at the life
of great scientists and their impact on the world and each
other. |
