Although Dennett expressed criticism of human sociobiology, calling it a form of "greedy reductionism", he was generally sympathetic towards the explanations proposed by evolutionary psychology. Gould also is not one-sided, and writes: "Sociobiologists have broadened their range of selective stories by invoking concepts of inclusive fitness and kin selection to solve (successfully I think) the vexatious problem of altruism—previously the greatest stumbling block to a Darwinian theory of social behavior... Here sociobiology has had and will continue to have success. And here I wish it well. For it represents an extension of basic Darwinism to a realm where it should apply." Gould, 1980.
