Herbert Spencer coined the phrase "survival of the fittest” in his 1851 work Social Statics and later used it to characterize what Charles Darwin had called natural selection.
J.B.S. Haldane was the first to quantify fitness, in terms of the modern evolutionary synthesis of Darwinism and Mendelian genetics starting with his 1924 paper A Mathematical Theory of Natural and Artificial Selection.
The next further advance was the introduction of the concept of inclusive fitness by the British biologist W.D. Hamilton in 1964 in his paper on The Evolution of Social Behavior.
• How do we identify and assess design problems?
– figuring out what were the design problems is most often done after the
fact when one wants to know why a trait is present and looks for a problem
to which it could have been a solution
An organism can have a probabilistic disposition to have n offspring,
yet unluckily never actually reproduce
(because there is no guarantee that the fitter one will have more offspring )
So, it can avoid the tautology problem
