A nonmathematical exposition of the current status of the formal darwinism project is presented, linking it to the fundamental theorem of natural selection, which is regarded as Fisher's own 'formal darwinism project'. The purpose is to found organism-level thinking about design and adaptation, in short Darwinism, on what is known about the mechanics of genetic inheritance, in short Mendelism, and the project is to do so in as general a biological setting as possible. This view also makes sense of the name 'fundamental theorem of natural selection'.

我们是否应该要求达尔文主义和孟德尔主义保持一致？

提出了对形式达尔文主义项目现状的非数学解释，并将其与自然选择的基本定理联系起来，后者被认为是费舍尔自己的“形式达尔文主义项目”。目的是找到有机体级的设计和适应性思维，简而言之是达尔文主义，简而言之是孟德尔主义中关于遗传遗传机制的知识，并且该项目将在尽可能普遍的生物学环境中进行。这种观点也使“自然选择的基本定理”这个名字有意义。
