Evolutionary Worlds without End
Plotkin, H. CAuthor
Oxford : Oxford University Press,
2010.
Diversity and complexity are the hallmarks of living forms. Yet science aims for general causal explanations of its observations - so how can this be achieved in the non-physical sciences? This book considers whether there can be a general theory in biology and the social sciences, that is equivalent to those seen in physics.
