Explore a groundbreaking theory of natural kinds with this essential philosophy of science read. Christopher J. Austin challenges common objections to biological essentialism, integrating contemporary evolutionary-developmental biology with neo-Aristotelian metaphysics. This book offers a novel defence of natural kinds, centred on the developmental architecture of organisms within the evolutionary process. It’s a vital resource for students, researchers, and academics in India seeking fresh insights into the persistent debates surrounding evolution and the fundamental nature of life.
