Abstract

Probability and indeterminism have always been core philosophical themes. Biology provides an interesting case study to explore these themes. First, biology is teeming with probabilities, and so a crucial question in the foundations of biology is how to understand these probabilities. Second, philosophers want to know whether the processes investigated by one of the major sciences biology are indeterministic.
