Shapiro developed his work in peer-reviewed publications and then later outlined a more detailed paradigm in his book: "Evolution: A View from the 21st Century". He also proposes NGE to account for several counterexamples in regard to the "Central Dogma" of Biology, a 1970's proposal in which the direction and flow of sequence information is only from DNA to DNA (DNA to RNA) to proteins -- and never the reverse.
The molecular pioneer (and bacterial expert) draws conclusions from work as diverse as the adaptivity of the mammalian immune system, ciliate macronuclei and epigenetics. Shapiro's NGE also gained a measure of notoriety after being championed by proponents of Intelligent Design."
