A Most Eminent Victorian: Thomas Henry Huxley by Sherrie Lyons

“…His claim that theology belonged to the realm of the intellect while religion belonged to the realm of feeling served as an important strategy in his defense of evolution. Approaching Darwin’s theory in the spirit of Goethe’s Thatige Skepsis or active skepticism, he showed that most of the “scientific” objections to evolution were at their root religiously based. …”

Numerical analysis of a caprock integrity during oil production by steam-assisted gravity drainage method by Anastasiia Kostina, Maxim Zhelnin, Oleg Plekhov

“…It has been shown that the oil production rate is strongly depend on the prevailing physical mechanism of the porosity evolution.  Reservoirs characterized by the volumetric strain mechanism of the porosity evolution produce slightly higher values of the mechanical loadings acting on the over-burden.…”

Forms, stakeholders and challenges of participation in the creation of the Cevennes National Park (1950-1970) by Karine-Larissa Basset

“…The successive paradigms of French sociology have constructed a representation of the evolution of environmental participation that tends to contrast the so-called current « eco-citizen » phase, with a 1950-1970 phase which supposedly witnessed both a massive public adhesion to modernisation trends, and an authoritarian management by the State of diverging views. …”
