In Controversy, Trevor Palmer fully documents how traditional
gradualistic views of biological and geographic evolution are
giving way to a catastrophism that credits cataclysmic events, such
as meteorite impacts, for the rapid bursts and abrupt transitions
observed in the fossil record. According to the catastrophists, new
species do not evolve gradually; they proliferate following sudden
mass extinctions. Placing this major change of perspective within
the context of a range of ancient debates, Palmer discusses such
topics as the history of the solar system, present-day
extraterrestrial threats to earth, hominid evolution, and the
fossil record.
