Contents: | 1. Introduction to Organic Nonoptimal Constrained Evolution (ONCE) and notes on terminology -- 2. Baldwin's organic selection and the increasing awareness of the evolutionary importance of behavioral shifts -- 3. Behavioral choices and shifts, niche construction, natural selection, extinctions, and asymmetry -- 4. Evolutionary trends, sexual selection, gene loss, mass extinctions, "progress", and behavioral versus ecological inheritance and novelties versus stability -- 5. Behavioral leads in evolution : exaptations, human evolution, Lamarck, the Cuvier-Geoffroy debate, and form versus function -- 6. Eco-morphological mismatches, human "exceptionalism", hybridization, trade-offs, and non-optimality -- 7. Internal selection, constraints, contingency, homology, reversions, atavisms, von Baer, Haeckel, and Alberch -- 8. ONCE links internal factors, epigenetics, Matsuda, Waddington, Goldschmidt, and macroevolution -- 9. ONCE ideas are put together : evolutionary behavioral ecology, adaptationism, systems biology, and interdisciplinary -- 10. General remarks. |
