Reading Baedke et al. (2020) hoping to understand the need for an #ExtendedEvolutionarySynthesis
Baedke, J., Fábregas-Tejeda, A., & Vergara-Silva, F. (2020). Does the extended evolutionary synthesis entail extended explanatory power?. Biology & philosophy, 35(1), 1-22.
Quote from abstract follows. 1/2
My latest #ecoevo publication is an intro to the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis, commissioned by the John Templeton Foundation. It is a 60 pg document that lays out the assumptions of the #ModernSynthesis according to the #EES, the diverse origins of the EES in multiple disciplines, and the current status & objections to the #extendedsynthesis. A friendly & illustrated review for anyone interested in knowing what it's all about.
