Two neo-Darwinisms.

History and philosophy of the life sciences - 1 Jan 2010

Walsh Denis M

Abstract excerpt

There are two extant theories of evolution, each of which deserves the honourific "neo-Darwinism": Modern Synthesis Replicator theory and a theory I shall call Developmental Darwinism. The principal difference concerns the canonical unit of biological organization. Modern Synthesis replicator the...
