This chapter argues that evolutionary developmental biology requires integrative and hierarchical approaches. It explores the nature and contributions of such approaches and the new “tools” and methods of analysis that facilitate the exploration of biological complexity. Because researchers in Evo-devo have usually embraced new methods and the need to examine multiple levels of biological organization, they have gained new insights into major questions and expanded the scientific research agenda.
