    Foundations of Biophilosophy

    Over the past three decades, the philosophy of biology has emerged from the shadow
    of the philosophy of physics to become a respectable and thriving philosophical
    subdiscipline. In their book, the authors take a fresh look at the life sciences and their
    philosophy from a strictly realist and emergentist-naturalist perspective. They outline a
    unified and science-oriented philosophical framework that enables them to clarify many
    foundational and philosophical issues in biology. Thus, this book should be of interest
    to both life scientists and philosophers and is suitable as a textbook for courses at the
    advanced levels as well as for independent study.
