Summary:
In this sweeping account, Gary Cziko integrates various scientific disciplines within a universal selection theory that attempts to account for all cases of fit involving living organisms, including those that might appear miraculous. Cziko's bold assertion is that all novel forms of adapted complexity - whether single-celled organisms or scientific theories - emerge form an evolutionary process involving cumulative blind variation and selection.
