George Price's contributions to evolutionary genetics.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Aug 1995

Frank S A

Abstract excerpt

George Price studied evolutionary genetics for approximately seven years between 1967 and 1974. During that brief period Price made three lasting contributions to evolutionary theory; these were: (i) the Price Equation, a profound insight into the nature of selection and the basis for the modern theories of kin and group selection; (ii) the theory of games and animal behavior, based on the concept of the...
