Intelligent design in cultural evolution
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 29 (4):352-353 (2006)
| Abstract | Intelligent design, though unnecessary in the study of biological evolution, is essential to the study of cultural evolution.

The role of intentionality in cultural evolution can be elucidated through the addition of signaling theory to the framework outlined in the target article.
