International Library of Essays on Evolutionary Thought

Understanding ourselves requires understanding our history, which entails grasping our evolutionary history. Moreover, with our growing ability to intervene at the genomic level, biology is today central to many social and political debates, such as stem cells, cloning and abortion. But to understand biology requires understanding evolution. This series explores the concepts of evolutionary biology, insofar as these concepts are needed to understand the social, political and intellectual debates over our place in nature, where we've come from and where we are going and the ways in which we can and should intervene in our own biology. It also explores some of the most important debates in which evolutionary concepts are applied with the aim of understanding human nature, our behaviour, our minds and our societies.Levy, Neil is the author of 'International Library of Essays on Evolutionary Thought', published 1001 under ISBN 9780754627678 and ISBN 0754627675.
