Damn, Zizek's death came unexpected. Anyway, I was wondering if /lit/ knows any good philosophy of biology.
Someone on /sci/ talked about biosemiotics, which I'm looking into. I've read Peter Godfrey-Smith's "Darwinian populations" which I need to reread because I didn't fully understand. I'm not sure if it is philosophy of biology but "The tinkerer's accomplice" was interesting. I guess I could namedrop Stuart Kauffman as well.

>Zizek's death came unexpected
It was obvious for a long time that he will die soon. He said it himself in some interview.

I guess, but he wasn't that old. And I disagreed with him many times, but damn he was sure a one of a kind person
Hoping we could have a philosophy of biology thread or maybe general biology thread though I won't be suprised if there just isn't enough people who read and know about this stuff
I'm trying to approach the philosophy of biology from a few angles right now, but mostly fringe ones like vitalism, the phenomenology of morphology, critics of the neo-Darwinian synthesis (especially advocates of porous/complex gene selection and activation, epigenetics, Lamarckianism), and wacky phenomenological ecology stuff.

If you ever need any more fringe authors, anon, the few I know of are Gilbert Ling, Gerald Pollack, Ray Peat, and Mae-Wan Ho.
This might be interesting to some:
