*Paul Nelson is a philosopher of biology, specializing in evo-devo and developmental
biology. He is also a fellow of the International Society for Complexity, Information
and Design. Dr. Nelson received his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago Department
of Philosophy. His thesis critiques aspects of macroevolutionary theory in
light of recent developments in embryology and developmental biology. Entitled
On Common Descent, it will be published as volume sixteen in the University
of Chicago Department of Ecology and Evolution's "Evolutionary Monographs" series
(and the first in this prestigious series to critique neo-Darwinism).
