Did it interact with other research programs? Were there any research programs that developed largely independently of the Darwinian tradition? Accordingly, the contributing authors explicitly explore the nature of the relationship between the Darwinian tradition and other research programs running in parallel..In the wake of the Synthetic Theory of Evolution, which was established throughout the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, historians and philosophers of biology devoted considerable attention to the Darwinian tradition, i.e., linking Charles Darwin to mid-Twentieth-Century developments in evolutionary biology. Since then, more recent developments in evolutionary biology have challenged, in part or entirely, the heritage of the Darwinian tradition. Not surprisingly, this has in turn been followed by a historiographical “recalibration” on the part of historians and philosophers regarding other research programs and traditions in evolutionary biology. In order to acknowledge this shift, the papers in this book have been arranged on the basis of two main threads | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Darwinian Tradition; Darwinism; evolutionary biology; Developmental biology; Evolutionary Synthesis; Neo- | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-69123-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-88718-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-69123-7 | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG 2017 |
