Applied Evolution

"Applied Evolution" (1900) delves into the principles of evolutionary science and explores their application to society and human progress. Marion Daniel Shutter examines the concepts of natural selection, adaptation, and heredity, drawing upon Darwin's theories to illuminate various aspects of human existence.

The book investigates the potential for improving society through an understanding of evolutionary mechanisms, considering factors that influence human development and the challenges inherent in shaping a better future. Shutter provides insights into the enduring relevance of evolutionary thought for understanding human behavior, social structures, and the ongoing quest for advancement.
