Sex and Death: An Introduction to Philosophy of Biology by Paul E. Griffiths, Kim Sterelny

krep___'s review

3.5

A thorough, well-organized, and well-balanced survey of the current state of the issues in mainly evolutionary biology but also delving into developmental biology and ecology, complete with extensive bibliography and suggested reading list. Not a light read: intellectually challenging and stimulating. The authors present all sides of the various debates fairly, while indicating their preferences. Discussion is aided by a reasonable number of illustrative examples. (Not sure where the title "Sex and Death" came from.)
Co-authors: Kim Sterelny & Paul E. Griffiths
