Here's some refs that I'm using in my thesis, (which is basically on
applications of Non-Darwinian evolutionary theory to biological models:
Rational Taxonomy and the like). If you want any more I've got thousands,
and if you find any cool stuff and get the chance send me the refs.

>For some of the best stuff around check out stuff in the journal Rivista di
Biologia Biology Forum, or papers and books by Brian Goodwin (eg the book: How
the leopard changed it's spots), Gerry Webster (The Origin of Species: A
Structuralist approach, 1982 (a paper in the J. Social Biol. Struct. 5:
15-47), For more vitriolic attacks see Soren Lovtrup's stuff (eg Book:
Darwinism: the refutation of a myth), Dave Lambert/Tony Hughes papers are
really good as well.
