This volume provides a broad overview of issues in the
philosophy of behavioral biology, covering four main themes:
genetic, developmental, evolutionary, and neurobiological
explanations of behavior. It is both interdisciplinary and
empirically informed in its approach, addressing philosophical
issues that arise from recent scientific findings in biological
research on human and non-human animal behavior. Accordingly, it
includes papers by professional philosophers and philosophers of
science, as well as practicing scientists. Much of the work in this
volume builds on presentations given at the international
conference, "Biological Explanations of Behavior: Philosophical
Perspectives," held in 2008 at the Leibniz Universitat Hannover in
Germany. The volume is intended to be of interest to a broad range
of audiences, which includes philosophers (e.g., philosophers of
mind, philosophers of biology, and metaethicists), as well as
practicing scientists, such as biologists or psychologists whose
interests relate to biological explanations of behavior. "
