Epigenesis and the evolution of social systems

Journal of Heredity, 1981
The remaining problems of biology, which include the nature of the molecular regulation of development, the relation between micro- and macroevolution, the mind/body association, and the linkage between genetic and cultural evolution, all appear to be most readily soluble by attention to the epigenesis of individual organisms.

Epigenesis and the evolution of the human brain

Medical Hypotheses, 1988
This article proposes an hypothesis for the evolution of the human brain. It is based on the concepts of (i) regulation of nerve cell proliferation, and (ii) selective stabilisation of synapses during development. The former process is supposed to be rigidly regulated by the genome, while the latter (selective stabilisation) is proposed as developing ...

The Epigenesis of Mathematical Thinking

Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology, 2000
The proclivity of young children to engage relevant environments actively helps explain how 3-year-old children in cultures that offer a variety of mathematical examples develop coherent understandings about natural numbers. A similar line of reasoning accounts for the development of other kinds of early cognitive accomplishments, such as understanding

Epigenesis in Kant: Recent reconsiderations

Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A, 2016
Epigenesis has become a far more exciting issue in Kant studies recently, especially with the publication of Jennifer Mensch's Kant' Organicism. In my commentary, I propose to clarify my own position on epigenesis relative to that of Mensch and others by once again considering the discourse of epigenesis in the wider eighteenth century. Historically, I

A morphomechanical aspect of epigenesis

Russian Journal of Genetics, 2006
Epigenesis in classical embryology is regarded as self-complication of spatial organization of the embryo during its development. The reality of the phenomenon of self-complication at the cellular and supra-cellular levels has been demonstrated by classical experimental embryology.

Birth defects before epigenesis

Clinical Genetics, 2008
Physicians have tried to explain the origins of birth defects since antiquity. In early humoralist models, fetal anomalies were most often understood in terms of quantity and quality of male and female seed. Maternal imagination was also considered a key environmental influence on fetal development from Hippocrates, Galen, and into late 17th century ...
