The Quote Mine Project Or, Lies, Damned Lies and Quote Mines Gould, Eldredge and Punctuated Equilibria Quotes by the talk.origins newsgroup Previous Introduction Contents Next s noted in the Introduction , our intent was to continue to add to our collection of quote mines. This is the second such addition and it primarily concerns one of, if not the , most fertile areas for quote mining by creationists: Punctuated Equilibria. If you have never heard of Punctuated Equilibria, it is a theory (or, more correctly, a related group of theories) first advanced by Niles Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould that primarily concerns the mechanisms, frequency and rate of speciation events, especially as they are reflected in the fossil record. In Gould's words, the theory of Punctuated Equilibria calls for a "jerky, or episodic, rather than a smoothly gradual, pace of change" in evolution. There is, of course, much more to it than that and the theory has been and continues to be controversial (at least in some respects) within the scientific community. For anyone who wishes to know more about Punctuated Equilibria, an excellent place to start is: Punctuated Equilibria by Wesley R. Elsberry.

Home Newswire About Us Donate ... Archives Featured Views Printer Friendly Version E-Mail This Article Published on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 in the Boston Globe Stephen Jay Gould's Battle Against Racism by Derrick Z. Jackson AS PROLIFIC and provocative as Stephen Jay Gould was on evolution, it was understandable that most obituaries on his recent death were obligated to focus on his notion of a ''punctuated equilibrium.'' Gould and colleague Niles Eldredge proposed that evolution was marked not by a continuous and gradual change of species but by sudden appearances of new species that themselves changed very little during their millions of years on earth. Gould also wrote mightily against punctuated inequality. Twenty years ago, Gould, a Harvard University scientist, published ''The Mismeasure of Man,'' which challenged the historical ranking of people by so-called levels of intelligence. Gould led the reader on a near-comical documentary of the ways the scientists of yesteryear tried to measure skulls, brains, heredity, and even the tattooing on criminals with the primary goal of declaring that western and northern Europeans had higher IQs than Eastern and Southern Europeans and people of color had much lower IQs. One famous example quoted by Gould was Louis Agassiz, the Harvard zoologist of the mid-1800s, who wrote that black people are part of a ''degraded and degenerate race.'' In 1996 Gould published a revised edition of ''The Mismeasure of Man,'' because men were still mismeasuring men and women. In 1994, right-wing political activist Charles Murray and the late Harvard psychology professor Richard Herrnstein hit the best-seller lists with ''The Bell Curve,'' which claimed that black people have lower and more fixed IQs than white people.

In Memoriam Stephen Jay Gould (1941-2002) Stephen Jay Gould Photo: Roderick Mickens, AMNH The American Museum of Natural History mourns the death of Stephen Jay Gould, one of the most influential paleontologists and evolutionary biologists of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Dr. Gould's long-standing association with the Museum began as a doctoral student in the joint American Museum-Columbia University program working under the advisement of the eminent paleontologist and Museum Curator Norman Newell. As a student he also began a lifelong collaboration with Niles Eldredge, now Curator in the American Museum of Natural History's Division of Paleontology, on the theory of punctuated equilibrium. The theory argues that evolutionary history is a pattern of rapid shifts followed by stasis rather than a slow and steady process of change. His association with the Museum continued with his regular contributions to Natural History magazine between 1974 and 2001, resulting in over 300 essays, many of which were collected in books such as Ever Since Darwin and Bully for Brontosaurus . He was also named the Frederick P. Rose Honorary Curator in the Museum's Division of Paleontology. Gould began teaching at Harvard University in 1967 where he spent his entire career. At Harvard he held the titles Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology, Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology in the Museum of Comparative Zoology, and Professor of Geology. He was also Vincent Astor Visiting Research Professor of Biology at New York University. His honors included the prestigious Schuchert Award for excellence in paleontological research by a scientist under 40, the MacArthur Foundation "Genius" Fellowship, and "Scientist of the Year" by
