This anthology collects some of the most important papers on what
is believed to be the major force in evolution, natural selection.
An issue of great consequence in the philosophy of biology concerns
the levels at which, and the units upon which selection acts. In
recent years, biologists and philosophers have published a large
number of papers bearing on this subject. The papers selected for
inclusion in this book are divided into three main sections
covering the history of the subject, explaining its conceptual
foundations, and focusing on kin and group selection and higher
levels of selection.One of the book's interesting features is that
it draws together material from the biological and philosophical
literatures. The philosophical literature, having thoroughly
absorbed the biological material, now offers conceptual tools
suitable for the reworking of the biological arguments. Although a
full symbiosis has yet to develop, this anthology offers a unique
resource for students in both biology and philosophy. A Bradford
Book.
Collected for the first time in a single volume are essays which
examine the developments in three fundamental biological
disciplines - embryology, evolutionary biology, and genetics. These
disciplines were in conflict for much of the twentieth century and
the essays in this collection examine key methodological problems
within these disciplines and the difficulties faced in overcoming
the conflicts between them. Burian skilfully weaves together
historical appreciation of the settings within which scientists
work, substantial knowledge of the biological problems at stake and
the methodological and philosophical issues faced in integrating
biological knowledge drawn from disparate sources. The final
chapter describes what recent findings in development biology and
genetics can tell us about the history and development of animals.
Written in a clear, accessible style this collection should appeal
to students and professionals in philosophy of science, and the
philosophy and history of biology.
