About this book

Science and Selection: Essays on Biological Evolution and the Philosophy of Science (Cambridge Studies in Philosophy and Biology) by Hull, David L.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521644051.

One way to understand science is as a selection process. David Hull, one of the dominant figures in contemporary philosophy of science, sets out in this volume a general analysis of this selection process that applies equally to biological evolution, the reaction of the immune system to antigens, operant learning, and social and conceptual change in science. Science and Selection brings together many of Hulls most important essays on selection (some never before published) in one accessible volume.
