"... new knowledge has led to the recognition of more than one hypothesis
in the theory of evolution."
The US media version reads as follows:
"...new knowledge leads us to recognize in the theory of evolution more
than a hypothesis."
I assume that we are confronted by two translations of a non-English text
and there probably is a pesky indefinite pronoun at fault. My own feeling
is that the "more than a hypothesis" version fits the context of
the full text better than the "more than one hypothesis" version.
Does anyone have some definitive information on the original
text and its subsequent translations?
