Quite often too, development has been misunderstood as simply, or even primarily, a matter of gene activation and regulation. Nowadays a growing number of philosophers of science are focusing their analyses on the complexities of development, and in Embryology, Epigenesis and Evolution Jason Scott Robert explores the nature of development against current trends in biological theory and practice and looks at the interrelations between development and evolution (evo-devo), an area of resurgent biological interest. Clearly written, this book should be of interest to students and professionals in the philosophy of science and the philosophy of biology. 410 0$aCambridge studies in philosophy and biology. 517 3 $aEmbryology, Epigenesis & Evolution 606 $aDevelopmental biology$xPhilosophy 606 $aEmbryology$xPhilosophy 606 $aEvolution (Biology)$xPhilosophy 615 0$aDevelopmental biology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEmbryology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEvolution (Biology)$xPhilosophy. 676 $a571.8 700 $aRobert$b Jason Scott$01465704 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784443703321 996 $aEmbryology, epigenesis, and evolution$93675879 997 $aUNINA
