But Old Mr. Darwin wasn’t to Blame: The Little Book of Evolutionary "Quotes", as the title suggests and, the quotes should reveal, Charles Darwin wasn’t actually to blame for all that ensued in his name. In fact, he was actually quite Lamarckian in his view of evolution, as revealed in later correspondences and editions of 'Origin'. Collectively these quotes form an outline of a narrative that I hope you will find illuminating and get as much from reading them as I did from discovering them. You may even be a little shocked, stunned and occasionally let out a little gasp when you hear what some top scientists have actually said about our modern synthesis. However, these quotes are not simply an exercise in pointing out what is obviously wrong with our modern Neo-Darwinian model of evolution, but, they should also reveal nuggets of an entirely new synthesis that is emerging, or re-emerging out of the ashes of the old paradigm.
