Mivart’s ‘Genesis of Species’ In George Mivart’s ‘Genesis of Species’‚ Mivart thoroughly reviews Darwin’s theory of natural selection.

He disputes that natural selection can account for the passing of negative or unnecessary traits‚ or for individualized traits occurring in only one species. He also asks
