Evolutionary Biology Redux [PDF]
Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 2014 This article offers a novel, enlightened concept for determining the mechanism of evolution. It is based on homeostasis, which distinguishes life from non-life and as such is the universal mechanism for the evolution of all living organisms. This view of evolution is logical, mechanistic, non-scalar, predictive, testable, and falsifiable, and it ...

Niche Construction and Conceptual Change in Evolutionary Biology
British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2019The theoretical status of ‘niche construction’ in evolution is intensely debated. Here we substantiate the reasons for different interpretations. We consider two concepts of niche construction brought to bear on evolutionary theory; one that emphasizes ...

Evolutionary Anthropology (print), 2018
Anthropologists have a long history of applying concepts from evolutionary biology to cultural evolution. Evolutionary biologists, however, have been slow to turn to anthropology for insights about evolution.

The Evolutionary Biology of Species
, 2019‘Species’ are central to understanding the origin and dynamics of biological diversity; explaining why lineages split into multiple distinct species is one of the main goals of evolutionary biology.

Evolutionary Developmental Biology
2021Evolutionary developmental biology, or evo-devo, is the study of the reciprocal relationships between ontogenetic development and evolutionary processes. This still relatively new research field, of roughly four decades, is highly heterogeneous and based on a variety of different approaches and interpretations of evo-devo as a research field.

Evolutionary biology of cancer
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2005Cancer is driven by the somatic evolution of cell lineages that have escaped controls on replication and by the population-level evolution of genes that influence cancer risk. We describe here how recent evolutionary ecological studies have elucidated the roles of predation by the immune system and competition among normal and cancerous cells in the ...

Evolutionary biology and feminism
Human Nature, 1992Evolutionary biology and feminism share a variety of philosophical and practical concerns. I have tried to describe how a perspective from both evolutionary biology and feminism can accelerate the achievement of goals for both feminists and evolutionary biologists.

Evolutionary Synthetic Biology
ACS Synthetic Biology, 2012Signaling networks process vast amounts of environmental information to generate specific cellular responses. As cellular environments change, signaling networks adapt accordingly. Here, I will discuss how the integration of synthetic biology and directed evolution approaches is shedding light on the molecular mechanisms that guide the evolution of ...

Evolutionary Biology and Psychiatry
British Journal of Psychiatry, 1993“Every one of the twenty-eight bones of the human skull has been inherited in an unbroken succession from the air-breathing fishes of the pre-Devonian seas.” (Gregory, 1967)

Evolutionary Economics and Evolutionary Biology [PDF]
, 1999 Present theorizing in economics is mainly directed towards two goals. First, there is the functionalist endeavor at explaining, or better rationalizing, why certain kinds of behavior and institutions can be observed in the economy. Second, efforts are made to attribute, in a hypothetico-normative manner, certain features, such as efficiency, equity, or
