Building on Dawkins’s classic, The Extended Phenotype, physiological ecologist Turner shows why drawing the boundary of an organism’s physiology at the skin is arbitrary. He argues that the structures animals build are better regarded not as frozen behaviors but as external organs of physiology and even extensions of the animal’s phenotype.
