“We think that sociobiology’s theoretical foundation can be as clear today as it appeared to be in the 1960s, but only if we go back to the beginning and review the basic logic of multilevel selection, what appeared to be at stake in the 1960s, and why the original rejection of group selection must be reevaluated on the basis of subsequent research. Everyone can benefit from this “back to basics” approach, from the most advanced theorists to students learning about sociobiology for the first time.”
