Oneness' trumps an abominable evolutionary doctrine - by Martin Lockley

American historian Theodore Hall (Ph.D) joins the growing ranks of independent thinkers who have something to say about the shortcomings of Darwinism, which still clings to its claim as the pre-eminent theory of evolution. Much of the problem, from Hall's valuable perspective, stems from what Samuel Coleridge called "the abominable doctrine" of Thomas Malthus regarding the so called 'population problem.' As any student of evolution knows Darwin was strongly influenced by Malthus' 1798 essay which argued that population increase causes competition for scarce resources. Thus, Darwin inferred, with a little help from Alfred Russell Wallace, that 'natural selection' ensured the "survival of the fittest" (a phrase borrowed from Herbert Spencer). This established a competitive, rather than a co-operative, doctrine in evolutionary theory. Darwin, who appears quite a borrower, derived his ostensibly biological theory from such socio-political domains, as social Darwinists firmly note. Read the rest of the review in PDF format.

New consciousness paradigms for a new Biology - by Martin Lockley

The many positive pre-cover page endorsements signal this as a book well-worth reading. It is. Following a mid-life crisis Bruce Lipton, former University of Wisconsin School of Medicine Professor, came "full circle from a reductionist scientific take on life to a spiritual one." The result of this epiphany is a short, direct and enthusiastically radical exposition on the shortcomings of the Central Dogma (genetic determinism and the primacy of DNA). With his infectious love for cell biology, Lipton practically turns the cell inside out. He stresses that the nucleus, and its DNA are not the brains that control the cell, but merely the gonads- an "understandable error" given the patriarchal nature of science! The membranes (mem-brains) and proteins are the real brains, interacting dynamically with the environment to produce the genes organisms need: an "inherent intelligence mechanism by which the cells evolve." This "new science" of epigenetics empowers the organism to interact with the environment. Read the rest of the review in PDF format.
