Perhaps because of it implications for our understanding of human
nature, recent philosophy of biology has seen what might be the
most dramatic work in the philosophies of the "special" sciences.
This drama has centered on evolutionary theory, and in the second
edition of this textbook, Elliott Sober introduces the reader to
the most important issues of these developments. With a rare
combination of technical sophistication and clarity of expression,
Sober engages both the higher level of theory and the direct
implications for such controversial issues as creationism,
teleology, nature versus nurture, and sociobiology. Above all, the
reader will gain from this book a firm grasp of the structure of
evolutionary theory, the evidence for it, and the scope of its
explanatory significance.
