The Grand Strategy of Evolution: The Social Philosophy of a Biologist is a book written by William Patten and first published in 1920.

Patten argues that evolution is not just a biological process, but a social and moral one as well. He examines the role of competition and cooperation in evolution, and how these forces shape human societies. Patten also explores the relationship between individualism and collectivism, and the tension between self-interest and the common good. The book draws on a range of scientific and philosophical sources, including the work of Charles Darwin, Herbert Spencer, and Friedrich Nietzsche.
