About this listen


Dive into the fascinating world of Jean-Baptiste Lamarck with "Echoes of Inheritance: Lamarck's Lasting Legacy in Psychological Thought." This enlightening book explores the profound impact of Lamarck's theories on the evolving field of psychology, weaving historical insights with contemporary scientific developments.

Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, once a herald of evolutionary biology, proposed the controversial idea that organisms could pass on traits acquired in their lifetime to their offspring. Discredited in biology, these ideas found new life in psychology, influencing theories about behavior, learning, and the intergenerational transmission of traits. "Echoes of Inheritance" traces the transformation of Lamarckian thought from its origins in natural science to its current implications in psychological research and educational practices.

The book presents a compelling narrative, exploring how early psychological adopters integrated Lamarckian themes, and delves into modern developments like neuroplasticity and epigenetics that echo these early ideas. It further examines the potential of these resurrected concepts to influence future research, education, and psychological understanding.

Structured to appeal to both the curious layperson and the professional psychologist, "Echoes of Inheritance" brings a fresh perspective to the legacy of Lamarck, showing how outdated scientific theories can find new relevance and lead to new discoveries
