Biology Under The Influence by Richard C. Lewontin
Dialectical Essays on Ecology, Agriculture, and Health
A collection of essays that challenges genetic determinism and reductionism by showing how organisms, environments, and social structures co-construct biological outcomes. Drawing on ecology, epidemiology, agriculture, and evolution, it demonstrates how political economy and historical context shape scientific questions, methods, and interpretations. Emphasizing a dialectical, systems perspective, it calls for research attentive to complexity, feedback, and social responsibility.
