Title: Norms of Nature
Description: "In Norms of Nature, Paul Sheldon Davies argues against the prevailing view that natural norms are constituted out of some form of historical success - usually success in natural selection. He defends the view that functions are nothing more than effects that contribute to the exercise of some more general systemic capacity."--BOOK JACKET.
