ISBN: 9780199556717 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Evolution and Rationality: Decisions, Co-Operation and Strategic Behaviour
ISBN: 9781107416840 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This volume explores from multiple perspectives the subtle and interesting relationship between the theory of rational choice and Darwinian evolution. In rational choice theory, agents are assumed to make choices that maximize their utility; in evolution, natural selection 'chooses' between phenotypes according to the criterion of fitness maximization. So there is a parallel between utility in rational choice theory and fitness in Darwinian theory. This conceptual link between fitness and utility is mirrored by the interesting parallels between formal models of evolution and rational choice....

Agents and Goals in Evolution
ISBN: 9780198815082 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Samir Okasha offers a critical study of agential thinking in biology, where evolved organisms are seen as agents pursuing a goal. He examines the justification for transposing concepts from rational humans to the biological world, and considers whether agential thinking is mere anthropomorphism or plays a more intellectual role in the science.
