Philosophy of Biology (Dimensions of Philosophy)

Rating:
Summary: Best short introduction to important growing topic.
Review: In brief this was one of the best books I read in 1995. While the book isa splendid introduction to an exciting topic, it has numerous specialinsights and clarifying presentations. It keeps close to biology demonstrating some fascinating respects in which biology and its theorists raise special issues in the philosophy of science. The book would go well with one of the main philosophy of natural sciences textbooks.
