Richard Stucky, PhD, curator of paleoecology and evolution, Earth Sciences Department
Evolution is the most important scientific principle in modern science. From understanding the development of the universe to understanding the world’s diversity, to understanding human physical and cultural change over time, evolution explains, through the scientific process, how change takes place in the fossil and archaeological record. Examine millions of years of changes in the history of life and how evolution explains them. Begin with the definition of science and why explanations that deny evolution are not compatible with the scientific method.
