This alternative view to the dominant genetic determinism will be of interest to all who seek a more complex view of human nature. It is an excellent book, beautifully composed.”—Katherine Nelson, City University of New York\u003cbr\u003e“Susan Oyama's \u003ci\u003eOntogeny of Information\u003c\/i\u003e provided a navigational chart for researchers seeking to avoid the shoals of the nature-nurture dichotomy. Here, in \u003ci\u003eEvolution's Eye\u003c\/i\u003e, she good-humoredly unmasks the rhetorical stratagems of reflexive genecentrism, while continuing to strengthen the case for the integrative, multifocal approach of developmental systems theory.”—Helen E. Longino, University of Minnesota\u003cbr\u003e“To think of nature and nurture as two distinct categories is not only wrong, Susan Oyama convincingly argues, but doing so hobbles our attempts to understand the nature of development and evolution at every level. Hers is a voice that needs to be heard.”—Evelyn Fox Keller, Massachusetts Institute of Technology\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments \u003cbr\u003e Introduction \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ePart 1: Looking at Development and Evolution\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eTransmission and Construction: Levels and the Problem of Heredity \u003cbr\u003e What Does the Phenocopy Copy?
