   Many views counter to empirical adaptationism have been enunciated. Some dispense with natural selection entirely (or nearly so), such as in the study of molecular evolution, where there are neutral evolutionary explanations for many features of the genome (e.g., Lynch 2007b). Some retain natural selection within populations as an important evolutionary force but endorse the importance of other forces (e.g., Crespi 2000, Goodwin 2001, Carroll 2005), while others go further and invoke natural selection among populations or species along with natural selection within populations (Gould 2002, Jablonski 2008).
