Mutationism and the Dual Causation of Evolutionary Change
... What, then, explains the widespread belief that the mutationists "essentially did away with natural selection" (Ayala and Fitch 1997)? The answer hinges on the fact that “natural selection” often does not refer to the universal principle of selection, i.e., the principle by which biased differential ...
