Evolutionary theory • Aging • Selection • Growth termination

Two connected frameworks for understanding selection, senescence, and evolutionary stability.

This site presents two manuscripts by Kevin Brown: The Evolution of Selection and The Dis-Economies of Scale Theory of Aging. Zenodo remains the permanent archival repository; this site is the public reading and listening layer.

Selection theory

The Evolution of Selection

A framework describing how selection expands from physical interaction into algorithmic and cognitive choice, integrating natural, sexual, and social selection within a broader architecture of selection systems.

Aging theory

The Dis-Economies of Scale Theory of Aging

A theory proposing that senescence is an adaptive consequence of growth termination, maintained by sexual selection and tuned by ecological pressures including predation.

How this site stays current

The manuscript and audio files are hosted on Zenodo using permanent Concept DOIs. When a new version is published on Zenodo, the links on this site continue to resolve to the latest version.
