One may think, for instance, of methods for analyzing the basic molecular units of heredity; of proposals and clarifications of the appropriate methods of classifying organisms; of exciting new ideas about the nature of the fossil record and their implications for the elucidation of evolutionary mechanisms; and of ways in which the biological study of behavior has been extended, theoretically and experimentally, and of supposed implications for humankind. To add to these internal issues, the outside world has also seen much debate on biology - in the world of education, for instance.<br /> These and other issues have made biology one of the most exhilarating areas of science, and have aroused in biologists and philosophers an awareness that there is a need for meta-theoretical analysis, both about the very nature of biology, as well as about its social implications.<br /> <em>Biology and Philosophy</em> is aimed at a broad readership, drawn from both the sciences and the humanities. The journal subscribes to no specific school of biology, nor of philosophy, and publishes work from authors of all persuasions and all disciplines. The editorial board reflects this attitude in its composition and its world-wide membership.<br /> <br /> <h4>(text adapted from the Journal's website)</h4> British Journal for the History of Science, The tag:www.abctaxa.be,2011-10-10:/toolkit/sister-journals/science-history/british-journal-history-science 2011-10-10T11:03:49Z hdekoeijer Yves Samyn This leading international journal publishes <strong>scholarly papers and review articles on all aspects of the history of science.</strong> History of science is interpreted widely to include medicine, technology and social studies of science.
