Reviews
"The arguments and counterarguments will most certainly generate a good deal of heat, but also, let's hope,... even more light." The American Scholar "Roughgarden's new theory is likely to end up an important extension to existing thought." New Scientist "Succeeds in re-opening issues long thought closed...(Challenging) what we thought we already know." Nature "Argues that... sexual selection as a form of self-seeking improvement on the part of each beast is a myth." New Yorker
