Note(s) : Stephen J. Gould's greatest contribution to science is a revised version of the theory
of evolution which offers today a useful framework for understanding progress in many
evolutionary fields. His intuitions about the conjunction of evolution and development,
the role of ecological factors in speciation, the multi-level interpretation of the
units of selection, and the interplay between functional pressures and constraints
all represent fruitful lines of experimental research. His opposition to the progressive
representations of evolution, the gene-centered view of natural history, or the adaptationist
"just-so stories" has also left its mark on current biology. In May 2012, at the Instituto
Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti in Venice, an international panel of scientists
and philosophers discussed Stephen J. Gould's legacy, ten years after his death. This
book presents selections of those contributions, chosen for their interest and importance
