John Dupré in his own words:
"My book The Disorder of Things: Metaphysical Foundations of the Disunity of Science (Harvard University Press, 1993) articulates a non-reductive, indeterministic, and pluralistic metaphysics, and argues that this is much better suited to understanding contemporary science, especially biology, than is the monistic physicalism assumed by most contemporary philosophers of science. This general picture provided the background for extended critical discussion of evolutionary psychology and rational choice theory in Human Nature and the Limits of Science (Oxford University Press, 2001), in which I also insist on the necessity of a pluralistic understanding of human nature. My most recent book, Darwin’s Legacy: What Evolution Means Today (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2003) collects a number of papers on issues very broadly related to the classification of organisms.
My current work is increasingly focused on philosophical issues concerning the interpretation and implications of genetics and genomics. Over the next couple of years I am planning to collaborate with my colleague Professor Barry Barnes on a sociological and philosophical introduction to contemporary genomics."
