What Evolution Intended? Reply to Wakefield
Neuroethics 10 (1):69-70 (2017)
Abstract
Wakefield doesn't mind my focus on parallels between addiction and love. But love can fall outside the bounds of what evolution intended. So, he claims, comparing addiction with love does not preclude a naturally defined "disorder." I counter with the argument that evolution handed us such highly general response systems, the bounds of normality cannot be defined.My notes
