Strong disagreements have been launched against Dennett from Gould and his supporters, who allege that Dennett overstated his claims and misrepresented Gould's to reinforce what Gould describes as Dennett's " Darwinian fundamentalism ".

Stephen Jay Gould describes many of the same examples as parallel evolution starting from the common ancestor of all marsupials and placentals.

The University of Glasgow, which owns a copy of the work describes John Gould as ‘ the greatest figure in bird illustration after Audubon ’, and auctioneers ‘ Sotherans Co .’ describe ‘ Birds of Great Britain ’ as ‘ Gould's pride and joy ’.

Elizabeth Gould Davis argues that the breasts ( along with phalluses ) were revered by the women of Catal Huyuk as instruments of motherhood, but it was after what she describes as a patriarchal revolution – when men had appropriated both phallus worship and " the breast fetish " for themselves – that these organs " acquired the erotic significance with which they are now endowed ".

Stephen Jay Gould describes many of the same examples as parallel evolution starting from the common ancestor of all marsupials and placentals.

An article by the Toronto Life magazine, called the " Ryerson Revolution ", describes in detail how Sheldon Levy has taken the initiative since starting as President to improve Ryerson University, by purchasing Maple Leaf Gardens, shutting down Gould Street and a space sharing agreement with AMC thears, creating an urban campus, instead of the more traditional closed-off University Campus.

In another study, published in 2011, Jason E. Lewis and colleagues re-measured the cranial volumes of the skulls in Morton's collection, and re-examined the respective statistical analyses by Morton and by Gould, concluding that, contrary to Gould's analysis, Morton did not falsify craniometric research results to support his racial and social prejudices, and that the " Caucasians " possessed the greatest average cranial volume in the sample.

Ultimately, Lewis and colleagues disagreed with most of Gould's criticisms of Morton, finding that Gould's work was " poorly supported ", and that, in their opinion, the confirmation of the results of Morton's original work " weakens the argument of Gould, and others, that biased results are endemic in science.

A new paper, " The Mismeasure of Science: Stephen Jay Gould versus Samuel George Morton on Skulls and Bias " six anthropologists agree that there was bias — but that the bias came from Gould, who failed to examine, let alone remeasure, the crania to determine Morton's level of accuracy.

Criticism, most notably made by Richard Lewontin and Stephen Jay Gould, centered on sociobiology's contention that genes play an ultimate role in human behavior and that traits such as aggressiveness can be explained by biology rather than a person's social environment.

" In the American Monthly Review magazine, Richard York and the sociologist Brett Clark praised the book's thematic concentration, saying that " rather than attempt a grand critique of all ' scientific ' efforts aimed at justifying social inequalities, Gould performs a well-reasoned assessment of the errors underlying a specific set of theories and empirical claims.

Countering Gould, Davis further explained that Goddard proposed that the low IQs of the sub-normally intelligent men and women who took the cognitive-ability test likely derived from their social environments rather than from their respective genetic inheritances, and concluded that " we may be confident that their children will be of average intelligence, and, if rightly brought up, will be good citizens.

Jensen also criticized Gould for concentrating on long-disproven arguments ( noting that 71 % of the book's references preceded 1950 ), rather than addressing " anything currently regarded as important by scientists in the relevant fields ", suggesting that drawing conclusions from early human intelligence research is like condemning the contemporary automobile industry based upon the mechanical performance of the Ford Model T.

In making his 1981 re-recording of the Goldberg Variations, Glenn Gould considered playing this variation at a slower tempo, in keeping with the tempo of the preceding variation ( Variation 16 ), but ultimately decided not to because " Variation 17 is one of those rather skittish, slightly empty-headed collections of scales and arpeggios which Bach indulged when he wasn ’ t writing sober and proper things like fugues and canons, and it just seemed to me that there wasn't enough substance to it to warrant such a methodical, deliberate, Germanic tempo.

In March, Darwin met Gould again, learning that his Galápagos " wren " was another species of finch and the mockingbirds he had labelled by island were separate species rather than just varieties, with relatives on the South American mainland.

The departure of Brian Gould to New Zealand removed an alternative focus for policy formulation and Robin Cook, who later re-emerged after the Iraq War as an alternative leader on the Left, appeared to choose engagement with rather than resistance to Blairism at this time as did most of those associated with the " soft Left " What's Left group in Parliament.

Denver, South Park and Pacific completed construction first, but rather than both companies laying track to Leadville, Jay Gould pressured the two companies to make a deal called the " Joint Operation Agreement " of October 1, 1879.

* Gould once had a date with actress Judy Garland, which went rather poorly for both of them.

Gould Davis argued that patriarchal civilization is destroying itself, and that only the values of the " matriarchates " can save humanity, because a society based on the mechanistic, Cartesian duality of dominant and violent males leads inevitably to a focus on technology and gadgetry rather than on loving human relationships.

Also in 2006, Groves drove a Gould ( though a 2. 65-litre car rather than his usual larger-capacity machine ) at Bathurst in the Australian Hillclimb Championship, dipping well inside the hill record.

The poem is only attributed to Gould on slim evidence, as there are figures of speech and metaphors in it that closely resemble those employed by Gould in The Play-House, but it was not collected into his later Works ( 1709 ) and is unusually directed at a single public figure ( where Gould's previous habit had been to attack a sin and provide numerous examples of it rather than to devote a whole poem to the viciousness of a single person ).

His doctoral supervisor was Nobel laureate Polykarp Kusch, who guided Gould to develop expertise in the then-new technique of optical pumping.

Stephen Jay Gould ( 1941 – 2002 ) claimed Samuel Morton had fudged data and " overpacked " the skulls.

" They identified and remeasured half of the skulls used in Morton ’ s reports, finding that in only 2 % of cases did Morton ’ s measurements differ significantly from their own and that these errors either were random or gave a larger than accurate volume to African skulls, the reverse of the bias that Dr. Gould imputed to Morton.

In a 1978 paper and later in The Mismeasure of Man ( 1981 ), Stephen J. Gould asserted that Morton had selectively reported data, manipulated sample compositions, made analytical errors, and mismeasured skulls in order to support his prejudicial views on intelligence differences between different populations.

This idea is in conflict with the evolutionary philosophy of paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould, who preferred to stress the " pluralism " of evolution ( i. e., its dependence on many crucial factors, of which natural selection is only one ).

This stems from Gould's long-running public debate with E. O. Wilson and other evolutionary biologists over human sociobiology and its descendant evolutionary psychology, which Gould and Richard Lewontin opposed, but which Dennett advocated, together with Dawkins and Steven Pinker.

Apart from the commonly cited example of water turning to steam with increased temperature, Gould and Eldredge noted another analogy in information theory, " with its jargon of equilibrium, steady state, and homeostasis maintained by negative feedback ," and " extremely rapid transitions that occur with positive feedback.

In 1968, he studied glass in Venice on a Fulbright Fellowship and received a Master of Fine Arts at the Rhode Island School of Design. In 1971, with the support of John Hauberg and Anne Gould Hauberg, Chihuly founded the Pilchuck Glass School near Stanwood, Washington.

It is a term coined by Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge to contrast with their model of punctuated equilibrium, which is gradualist itself, but argues that most evolution is marked by long periods of evolutionary stability ( called stasis ), which is punctuated by rare instances of branching evolution.

Psychologist Arthur Jensen has rejected the criticism by Gould and also argued that even if g was replaced by a model with several intelligences this would change the situation less than expected.

Gould met with Powderly and agreed to call off his campaign against the Knights of Labor, which had caused the turmoil originally.

R. T. Gould wrote " A grey seal has a long and surprisingly extensible neck ; it swims with a paddling action ; its colour fits the bill ; and there is nothing surprising in its being seen on the shore of the loch, or crossing a road.

Stephen Jay Gould said that Agassiz's theories sprang from an initial revulsion in his encounters with African-Americans upon moving to the United States.

These local GMCs are arrayed in a ring in the neighborhood of the Sun coinciding with the Gould Belt.

Punctuated equilibrium differs from Mayr's hypothesis mainly in that Eldredge and Gould placed considerably greater emphasis on stasis, whereas Mayr was generally concerned with explaining the morphological discontinuity ( or " sudden jumps ") found in the fossil record.

According to Gould " the ideas came mostly from Niles, with yours truly acting as a sounding board and eventual scribe.

Gould responded that critics often made the mistake of confusing the context of discovery with the context of justification.

In July 1982, Gould was diagnosed with peritoneal mesothelioma, a deadly form of cancer affecting the abdominal lining and frequently found in people who have been exposed to asbestos.

Gould began his higher education at Antioch College, graduating with a double major in geology and philosophy in 1963.

Early in his career, Gould and Niles Eldredge developed the theory of punctuated equilibrium, in which evolutionary change occurs relatively rapidly, alternating with longer periods of relative evolutionary stability.

But life, Gould argued, can easily adapt towards simplification, as is often the case with parasites.
