The aim of this article is to characterize evolutionary epistemology and to indicate its relation with philosophical realism. I first part of text I examine relation between philosophy and biology as nature science. In second part I draw main assumptions of two main currents of evolutionary epistemology (evolutionary epistemology of mechanisms and evolutionary epistemology of theories). I third part I formulate several arguments against evolutionary epistemology’s demands for epistemological and ontological realism.
