DESCRIPTION:PRINCIPLES and CONTROVERSIES of EVOLUTION \nLecture by David Seaborg \nto 
 Celebrate Darwin Day at Humanist Hall \n\nDavid Seaborg will illuminate the 
 principles of evolutionary biology and the controversies surrounding them. 
 He will explain what natural selection -- the mechanism of evolution -- is 
 and how it works; how new species originate; why some types of species 
 evolve very rapidly, while others do not change for eons; why there are so 
 many species of some types, such as insects, and less of others; which 
 ecosystems (such as rainforests) have high species diversity and why; how 
 much of evolution is due to natural selection and how much to random 
 factors; how sex evolved and why this is so important to evoluton; sexual 
 selection and sociobiology; the evolution of co-operation and altruism as 
 opposed to selfishness; the evolution of color patterns; and the meaning of 
 variation in evolution. All in one fantastic -- and funny -- lecture! 
 \n\nSterling Bunnell will contribute to the discussions of David Seaborg's 
 talk.\n\nThe doors of Humanist Hall will open at 12:00 pm for our Humanist 
 Tea House. \n\nContact: 510-393-5685\n
