- W2000971982 abstract "Biologists have a love–hate relationship with teleology. On the one hand, we can (in principle) explain all of biology from a purely material perspective, without recourse to final causes. On the other hand, apparent purposefulness is the defining quality of life, and even the technical discourse of the biological sciences is shot through with the language of intentionality: function, optimum, conflicts of interest, selfishness, altruism. This tension is particularly tangible in my own research area, which occupies the overlap between theoretical population genetics (in which teleology is anathema) and behavioural ecology (in which the analogy of purpose is the paradigm). Seeking to confront this basic contradiction, John O. Reiss, in Not By Design: Retiring Darwin's Watchmaker, looks to history in order to discover the origins of the dilemma, as well as a possible resolution. He concludes that we must totally purge the analogy of teleology – and associated intentional language – from evolutionary biology." @default.
