Welcome

I'm going to give this blogging thing another try. Perhaps I might be able to use it to keep a record of what I'm working on. Today, I read chapter 3 of Dupre's work, The Disorder of Things, Sober's article on the philosophy of biology in The Blackwell Companion to Philosophy, 2ed (ed. Bunnin and Tsui-James), and Sober's 1980 article in The Philosophy of Science, "Evolution, Population Thinking, and Essentialism" 47, 350-83.
