Some biologists are calling for a rethink of the rules of evolution". The most comprehensive framework for the Extended Synthesis is the Major Transitions in Evolution.

The relevant text I would recommend is Evolution: The Extended Synthesis edited by a certain Massimo Pigliucci and Gerd Muller. I reviewed a couple A Corroboration of the Extended Evolutionary Synthesis. Pennsylvania) extended the concepts of behavioural genomics even further to propose that behavioural genes influence not only the behavioural phenotypes of the individuals that carry them, but also the phenotypes of One of our objectives in organizing this symposium was to illustrate the breadth of research questions, methods, and study organisms in the field of social evolution, but also to encourage synthesis within the field as a whole. In the post-genomic era, all the major tenets of the modern synthesis have been, if not outright overturned, replaced by a new and incomparably more complex vision of the key aspects of evolution. "Should Evolutionary Theory Evolve? We cannot repeat prokaryote to man macro evolution, and so we cant test prokaryote to man evolution macro evolution. On this subject In fact many are even demanding and or calling for the need for a new extended (non Darwinian) synthesis , as the limitations of the modern synthesis and its assumptions have been openly challenged and which has been met with much anger and resentment by many mainstream defenders of the current theory. 3 Responses to The extended evolutionary synthesis and the role of soft inheritance in evolution. The National Evolutionary Synthesis Center Although walking on our extended hind limbs is the hallmark adaptation characterizing our species it nevertheless makes us vulnerable to a wide range of serious joint and soft tissue problems. Hey I may as well share what I sent to you earlier so people can butcher it ;). Nice discussion of topics calling for more research in evolution. Muller, the organizers of the Altenberg conference, edited a book based on the papers coming out of the conference--Evolution--The Extended Synthesis (MIT Press). And a consensus is emerging that it's time for change, or an “extended synthesis".
