Wilson's Panchreston: the inclusive fitness hypothesis of sociobiology re-examined.

Journal of homosexuality - 1 Jan 1995

Dickemann M

Abstract excerpt

Of several hypotheses proposed by sociobiologists to explain "homosexuality", the most widely discussed is the inclusive fitness hypothesis, which is examined here in the work of the primary sociobiological proponents, E. O. Wilson, Michael Ruse, and James Weinrich. After reviewing the basic evolutionary concepts of natural selection, adaptation, and inclusive fitness/kin selection, I analyze the inclusive...
