Aims & Scope

Philosophy, Theory, and Practice in Biology ( PTPBio ) is a peer-reviewed, open-access, online journal that aims to publish work from philosophers of science and theoretically-inclined biologists, and to encourage interactions across disciplinary boundaries. Our goal is to foster a broader conception of what it means to reflect on and analyze biological theory and method, both scientifically and philosophically. Whatever their approach, submissions should substantively engage both philosophy and biology. We consider five kinds of submissions: Research articles : scholarly papers on a specific aspect of philosophy of biology or biology; Position papers : statements and defenses of positions with less context than research articles; Trends : in-depth review papers on topics of current interest within the areas covered by the journal; Comments : brief replies to articles published in the journal; Book reviews : extended, essay-style reviews of a book or books pertinent to the journal.
