John Dupr presents a lucid witty introduction to evolution and what it means for our view of humanity the natural world and religion. He explains the right and the wrong ways to understand evolution: in the latter category fall most of the claims of evolutionary psychology of which Dupr gives a withering critique. He shows why the theory of evolution is one of the most important scientific ideas of all time but makes clear that it can't explain everything - contrary to widespread popular belief it has very little to tell us about the details of human nature and human behaviour such as language culture and sexuality. Darwin's Legacy clears a path through the confusion and controversy surrounding evolution; anyone who is interested in understanding what the theory of evolution can and can't do will find this a compelling and enjoyable introduction.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Darwin's Legacy What Evolution Means Today\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Dupre John (Professor Of Philosophy And Sociology At The University Of Exeter)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780199284214\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 150 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 9\/29\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Popular Science","brand":"Dupre John (Professor Of Philosophy And Sociology At The University Of Exeter)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49592452219185,"sku":"IN-G-9780199284214","price":20.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780199284214.jpg?v=1729806180","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780199284214-darwins-legacy-what-evolution-means-today","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
