This text incorporates modern molecular knowledge of the structure and regulation of genes into an evolutionary framework, stressing the importance of genomic integration as a selectable feature in the evolution of multicellular phenotypes. It reinterprets important subjects in the new framework, including transposable elements, epigenetics, the evolution of sex, phenotypic plasticity and the evolution and regulation of longevity assurance systems. This work's vast scope spans the molecular to the ecological, making it relevant to all biologists. It should also interest those designing new organisms genetically, and to those wishing to understand the design of naturally evolved organisms.

Preface. Hierarchical reductionism and the evolution of biological organization. Regulatory interactions, epigenetics and genomic integration. Epigenetics and developmental hierarchies. The subspecific lineage paradigm and the genetic templet. Metalineage selection and sexual reproduction. Phenotypic plasticity, allelic switches and canalization: a metalineage perspective. Adaptive suites, coadapted genomes and dynamic genetic templets. Trade offs and synergisms in phenotypic organization: an evolutionary framework. The evolution of senescence and longevity assurance.
