Several kinds of predictions derivable from evolutionary theory were discussed. The question as to whether neo-Darwinism is inferior to the theories of physical science is raised. Neo-Darwinism is defended as a scientific theory, not a metaphysical one.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
