	abstract = {<p>In this sweeping account, Gary Cziko integrates various scientific disciplines within a universal selection theory that attempts to account for all cases of fit involving living organisms, including those that might appear miraculous. Cziko{\textquoteright}s bold assertion is that all novel forms of adapted complexity - whether single-celled organisms or scientific theories - emerge form an evolutionary process involving cumulative blind variation and selection.
