Central to Darwin's theory of evolution are concepts such as fitness, natural selection, and adaptation. The book explores these ideas alongside 20th and 21st-century evolutionary theories, delving into the philosophical questions that arise from them. By incorporating notions of probability, it examines how chance and mutation influence evolutionary processes, offering a thought-provoking perspective on the implications of these foundational concepts in biology.
