The notions of purpose, goal, end and function are used (and
abused) in descriptions of a very wide range of human, animal and
machine behaviour. Andrew Woodfield provides here a unified account
of such teleological descriptions and explanations, their
varieties, their logical structure and their proper uses. He
concentrates his argument on the concepts of 'goal-directed
behaviour' and 'natural function', and combines original
philosophical criticism with a meticulous, detailed survey of the
main competing theories in this diffuse and difficult field.
