Updating Darwin: biologists are returning to an older theory to explain anomalies in evolution

To make sense of some characteristics that species exhibit from birth, you have to turn to an old discredited theory known as Lamarckism.

Updating Darwin: Biologists are returning to an older theory to explain anomalies in evolution

Evolution is a fact of life. So much so that even the theory of evolution is evolving. Lately, a centuries-old discredited idea has been making a strong comeback. It helps us expla...
