商品簡介
These essays by leading scientists and philosophers address conceptual issues thatarise in the theory and practice of evolutionary biology. The third edition of this widely usedanthology has been substantially revised and updated. Four new sections have been added: on women inthe evolutionary process, evolutionary psychology, laws in evolutionary theory, and race as socialconstruction or biological reality. Other sections treat fitness, units of selection, adaptationism,reductionism, essentialism, species, phylogenetic inference, cultural evolution, and evolutionaryethics.Each of the twelve sections contains two or three essays that develop different views of thesubject at hand. For example, the section on evolutionary psychology offers one essay by twofounders of the field and another that questions its main tenets. One sign that a discipline isgrowing is that there are open questions, with multiple answers still in competition; the essays inthis volume demonstrate that evolutionary biology and the philosophy of evolutionary biology areliving, growing disciplines.Contributors:Robin O.
