:A historical overview dedicated to [[Ernst Mayr]] on the occasion of his 100th birthday. Portrays the major aspects of evolution and how they have been shaped by the development of biology as a field and by incorporation of data from an ever broader range of biological and neighbouring disciplines. Briefly explains the various uses of "synthesis" in this context and identifies major figures involved in the process.

Abstract: Recent developments in microbiology, geophysics and planetary sciences raise the possibility that the planets in our solar system might not be biologically isolated. Hence, the possibility of lithopanspermia (the interplanetary transport of microbial passengers inside rocks) is presently being re-evaluated, with implications for the origin and evolution of life on Earth and within our solar system. Here, I summarize our current understanding of the physics of impacts, space transport of meteorites, and the potentiality of microorganisms to undergo and survive interplanetary transfer.

A brief and balanced overview over the genetic mechanisms currently deemed relevant for the evolution of the human brain, along with pointers to some related methodological issues.
