"This volume provides a broad overview of issues in the philosophy of behavioral biology, covering four main themes, genetic, developmental, evolutionary, and neurobiological explanations of behavior. It is both interdisciplinary and empirically informed in its approach, addressing philosophical issues that arise from recent scientific findings in biological research on human and non-human animal behavior. Much of the work in this volume builds on presentations given at the international conference, ?Biological explanations of behavior : philosophical perspectives?, held in 2008 at the Leibniz Universität Hannover in Germany.

"The present book collects the contributions from the meeting, mixing styles, arguments, topics, history and philosophy of science, modern biology and epistemology . This kind of inter-disciplinary approach may appear erratic, but it conveys flashes of lights on the changing scene where the theory of evolution plays. This is in line with the idea to reopen the file of the two cultures, looking at shared problems, which are not yet really the third culture invoked by Charles Percy Snow half a century ago, but they can foster it, at least in such a pivotal domain as evolution.
