The Rise of Chance in Evolutionary Theory: A Pompous Parade of
Arithmetic explores a pivotal conceptual moment in the history of
evolutionary theory: the development of its extensive reliance on a
wide array of concepts of chance. It tells the history of a
methodological and conceptual development that reshaped our
approach to natural selection over a century, ranging from Darwin's
earliest notebooks in the 1830s to the early years of the Modern
Synthesis in the 1930s. Far from being a "pompous parade of
arithmetic," as one early critic argued, evolution transformed
during this period to make these conceptual and technical tools
indispensable. This book charts the role of chance in evolutionary
theory from its beginnings to the earliest days of modern
evolutionary theory, making it an ideal resource for evolutionary
biologists, historians, philosophers, and researchers in science
studies or biological statistics.
