A major transition in Darwinism

Many lines of evidence indicate that in recent: years the focus of evolutionary biology has begun to shift from explaining the ‘origin of species’ to the modelling of processes by which autonomous entities cooperate (or are coerced) to form systems of greater complexity. If such a major shift is indeed occurring, then it should be more widely promulgated to counteract the public image of evolutionary theory, which appears to be as dogmatically simplistic today as it was a century ago.
