My books address foundational questions in evolutionary biology, particularly the structure and development of evolutionary theory and the concepts used within it.
Evolutionary Biology: Contemporary and Historical Reflections upon Core Theory
Evolutionary Biology: Contemporary and Historical Reflections upon Core Theory
T. E. Dickins & B. J. A. Dickins (Eds.), 2023 · Springer
This edited volume examines foundational questions in contemporary evolutionary biology from both historical and theoretical perspectives. Contributors consider the development and current status of core evolutionary ideas, including natural selection, inheritance, adaptation, development, information and the Modern Synthesis.
The volume brings together differing perspectives on how evolutionary theory has developed and on the conceptual frameworks through which evolutionary processes are understood.

The Modern Synthesis: Evolution and the Organization of Information
The Modern Synthesis: Evolution and the Organization of Information
T. E. Dickins, 2021 · Springer
This book examines the Modern Synthesis as the foundational theoretical framework of contemporary evolutionary biology. It considers its historical development, its central commitments and the relationship between evolutionary processes and biological information.
A central concern of the book is how evolutionary explanation is organised: what kinds of processes evolutionary theory seeks to explain, how information should be understood within biology, and how subsequent theoretical developments relate to the framework established by the Modern Synthesis.
