In "Evolution's Eye," Susan Oyama critiques the dominant gene-centered perspective in evolutionary biology, using humor to expose its rhetorical tactics. She advocates for a multifocal approach rooted in developmental systems theory, which emphasizes the interplay of various factors in evolution rather than a simplistic nature-nurture dichotomy. This work builds on her previous insights, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding the complexities of development and evolution.
