"Susan Oyama's "Ontogeny of Information" provided a navigational chart for researchers seeking to avoid the shoals of the nature-nurture dichotomy. Here, in "Evolution's Eye," she good-humoredly unmasks the rhetorical stratagems of reflexive genecentrism, while continuing to strengthen the case for the integrative, multifocal approach of developmental systems theory."--Helen E. Longino, University of Minnesota
