It must be pointed out Lovtrup is not a " Creationist " or " Intelligent design " proponent, he simply challenges the micromutation theory of evolution, he is an evolutionist with a PHD not a " crank ".
2.
In his book " The Material Basis of Evolution " ( 1940 ) he wrote " the change from species to species is not a change involving more and more additional atomistic changes, but a complete change of the primary pattern or reaction system into a new one, which afterwards may again produce intraspecific variation by micromutation . " Goldschmidt believed the large changes in evolution were caused by macromutations ( large mutations ).
