Timothy Lewens Knihy

Tim Lewens explores what it means to take an evolutionary approach to cultural change, and why this approach is often treated with suspicion. He makes an original case for the value of evolutionary thinking for students of culture, and shows why the concerns of sceptics should not dismissed as mere prejudice, confusion, or ignorance.

Charles Darwin (1809-1882) is best known as a biologist and natural historian rather than a philosopher. This book shows how important Darwin is for philosophy and how his work has shaped and challenged the nature of the subject. It is aimed at those in the humanities, social sciences and sciences seeking a philosophical introduction to Darwin.
