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. 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. Biology and Philosophy 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. Each issue of Biology and Philosophy carries one or more discussions or comparative reviews, permitting the in-depth study of important works and topics Instructions to Authors Instructions for Authors Editor−in−Chief Online Manuscript Submission Manuscript Presentation Proofs Offprints Page Charges and Colour Figures Copyright Permissions Springer Open Choice Additional Information Editor−in−Chief Kim Sterelny (from January to June) Department of Philosophy Victoria University PO Box 600 Wellington New Zealand (from July to December) Research School of the Social Sciences Australian National University Canberra, ACT 0200 Australia Online Manuscript Submission Springer now offers authors, editors and reviewers of Biology and Philosophy the option of using our fully web-enabled online manuscript submission and review system.

Key Words Please provide 5 to 10 key words or short phrases in alphabetical order. Since the key words will be used to select appropriate reviewers, it is essential to make them as informative as possible. Article Types regular article review Units All scientific or technical data included in the text should be stated in the metric and other absolute (c.g.s.) systems. The use of English or other regional systems of units should be avoided. Section Headings First−, second−, third−, and fourth−order headings should be clearly distinguishable. Numbering them (e.g., 1., 1.1, 1.1.1, 2., 2.1, etc.) is optional. Appendices Supplementary material should be collected in an Appendix and placed before the Notes and Reference sections. Notes Please use endnotes rather than footnotes. Notes should be indicated by consecutive superscript numbers in the text and listed at the end of the article before the References. The references should also be collected in a list at the end of the article. A source reference note should be indicated by means of an asterisk after the title. This note should be placed at the bottom of the first page. Cross−Referencing n the text, a reference identified by means of an authors name should be followed by the date of the reference in parentheses and page number(s) where appropriate. When there are more than two authors, only the first authors name should be mentioned, followed by et al.. In the event that an author cited has had two or more works published during the same year, the reference, both in the text and in the reference list, should be identified by a lower case letter like a and b after the date to distinguish the works. Examples: Winograd (1986: 204) (Winograd 1986a, b) (Winograd 1986; Flores et al. 1988) (Bullen and Bennett 1990) Acknowledgements Acknowledgements of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the References. References References to books, journal articles, articles in collections and conference or workshop proceedings, and technical reports should be listed at the end of the article in alphabetical order, following the journal style (see examples below). Articles in preparation or articles submitted for publication, unpublished observations, personal communications, etc. should not be included in the reference list but should only be mentioned in the article text (e.g., T. Moore, personal communication). References to books should include the authors name; year of publication; title; page numbers where appropriate; publisher; place of publication, in the order given in the example below. Boyd, R. and Richerson, P.J.: 1985, Culture and the Evolutionary Process, The University of Chicago Press, Chicago.

Winsor, M.P.: 1993, Reading the Shape in Pictures: Photographs and Plans of the Museum of Comparative Zoology, paper presented at the meeting of the International Society for the History, Philosophy, and Social Studies of Biology, Waltham, MA. References to articles in periodicals should include the authors name; year of publication; article title; full or abbreviated title of periodical; volume number (issue number where appropriate); first and last page numbers, in the order given in the example below. Sober, E.:1981, The Evolution of Rationality, Synthese 46, 95−120.

Buege, D.J.:1993, Intrinsic Value, Organic Unity and Environmental Philosophy: Grounding Our Values, Doctoral dissertation, University of Minnesota. Figures All photographs, graphs and diagrams should be referred to as a 'Figure' and they should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.). Multi-part figures ought to be labelled with lower case letters (a, b, etc.). Please insert keys and scale bars directly in the figures. Relatively small text and great variation in text sizes within figures should be avoided as figures are often reduced in size. Figures may be sized to fit approximately within the column(s) of the journal. Provide a detailed legend (without abbreviations) to each figure, refer to the figure in the text and note its approximate location in the margin. Please place the legends in the manuscript after the references. Tables Each table should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.). In tables, footnotes are preferable to long explanatory material in either the heading or body of the table. Such explanatory footnotes, identified by superscript letters, should be placed immediately below the table. Please provide a caption (without abbreviations) to each table, refer to the table in the text and note its approximate location in the margin. Finally, please place the tables after the figure legends in the manuscript. Proofs Proofs will be sent to the corresponding author. Corrected proofs should be returned within three days of receipt. Offprints Twenty−five offprints of each article will be provided free of charge. Additional offprints can be ordered by means of an offprint order form supplied with the proofs. Page Charges and Colour Figures No page charges are levied on authors or their institutions except for colour pages. The author will be contacted regarding costs and invoicing if the manuscript includes colour figures. Copyright Authors will be asked, upon acceptance of an article, to transfer copyright of the article to the Publisher. This will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information under copyright laws.
