Evolution - both the fact that it occurred and the theory
describing the mechanisms by which it occurred - is an intrinsic
and central component in modern biology. Theodosius Dobzhansky
captures this well in the much-quoted title of his 1973 paper
'Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution'.
The correctness of this assertion is even more obvious today:
philosophers of biology and biologists agree that the fact of
evolution is undeniable and that the theory of evolution explains
that fact. Such a theory has far-reaching implications. In this
volume, eleven distinguished scholars address the conceptual,
metaphysical and epistemological richness of the theory and its
ethical and religious impact, exploring topics including DNA
barcoding, three grand challenges of human evolution,
functionalism, historicity, design, evolution and development, and
religion and secular humanism. The volume will be of great interest
to those studying philosophy of biology and evolutionary biology.
