This paper is devoted to the modeling, qualitative analysis and simulation of Darwinian selection phenomena and their evolution. The approach takes advantage of the mathematical tools of the kinetic theory of active particles which are applied to describe the selective dynamics of evolution processes. The first part of the paper focuses on a mathematical theory that has been developed to describe mutations and selection processes. The second part deals with different modeling strategies and looks ahead to research perspectives.
