Beschreibung
Does natural selection act primarily on individual organisms, on groups, on genes, or on whole species? The question of levels of selection is central to evolutionary theory and to the philosophy of biology. Samir Okasha's comprehensive analysis gives a clear account of the philosophical issues at stake in the current debate.
