Hastings Center Report, 2006
As medical educators, we encourage humanism in our medical students. Often, however, we don't know quite what humanism is or whether it is possible to encourage it. Some people just seem to have it. Others seem like they will never acquire it. And only those who have it seem to know it when they see it.

International Journal of Health Services, 1977
The debate about Wilson's Sociobiology continues the long-standing argument among natural scientists and social scientists over the role of “biology” in human affairs. In dealing with the animal world, Wilson's book is both thoughtful and exciting, and its treatment of humans does help open some interesting perspectives.

Sociobiology of the Myxobacteria
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2009Cooperation is integral to much of biological life but can be threatened by selfish evolutionary strategies. Diverse cooperative traits have evolved among microbes, but particularly sophisticated forms of sociality have arisen in the myxobacteria, including group motility and multicellular fruiting body development.

Science, 1996
One must agree with S. B. Hrdy et al. (Letters, [11 Oct., p. 162][1]) that a substantial amount of good work is being done in sociobiology. However, with all due respect for good intentions, their attempt to blame the questionable reputation of the field on “detractors” and the public ...

Following Darwin, biologists and social scientists have periodically been drawn to the theory of natural selection as the source of explanatory insights about human behaviour and social institutions. The combination of Mendelian genetics and Darwinian theory, which did so much to substantiate the theory of evolution in the life sciences, however, has ...

Sociobiological Explanation and the Testability of Sociobiological Theory
