You're welcome, Dumb_Ox.

Can't say I know of Sternberg. I did, however, also notice that E. Gilson wrote on this topic toward the end of his writing career. Several articles. The odd thing is that the mistakes that are made are philosophical and logical, not scientific. But, I regret to say, I haven't done any reading in this area. I shouldn't even be posting.

You have a colorful web log!

Edward T. Oakes, who has a book on evolutionary theory forthcoming from Cambridge University Press, has pointed me in the direction of Gilson's hard-to-find From Aristotle to Darwin and Back Again. I hope to get it on interlibrary loan, but the libraries have a habit of losing the books I want.

Brian Goodwin's name has come up in a lazy google of process structuralism. His "complexity theory" seems to have an almost Platonic conception of biology, and if that weren't enough to sideline him he seems to be kind of a New Ager. He's reviewed here towards the bottom of the page, and there's an interview with him somehere I can't take the time to look up at the moment.

In content, or presentation? The color scheme was a default setting. I've been thinking of changing it.
