The Sheekey Science Show | Philosophy of Biology - Samir Okasha @TheSheekeyScienceShow | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 3 hours ago
In this video I spoke with Samir Okasha, Professor of Philosophy of Science at University of Bristol. He has interests in the 'levels of selection' question in evolutionary biology, and the related issue of individual versus group conflicts of interest. Here, we discuss these interests and the broader role that philosophy of biology plays.
