Best behaviour: A proposal for a non-binary conceptualization of behaviour in biology
Publication date: Available online 15 November 2019Source: Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part C: Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical SciencesAuthor(s): Eric Muszynski, Christophe MalaterreAbstractBehaviour is a widespread object of research in biology, yet it is often left undefined, and the variety of existing definitions have not led to a consensus.

Publication date: Available online 2 November 2019Source: Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part C: Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical SciencesAuthor(s): Cédric PaternotteAbstractDoes natural selection tend to maximise something?

The purpose is to found organism-level thinking about design and adaptation, in short Darwinism, on what is known about the mechanics of genetic inheritance, in short Mendelism, and the project i...
