Description

In the book "The Dangerous Idea of Darwin: Evolution and the Meanings of Life," Daniel C. Dennett argues that the theory of evolution can demystify the wonders of life without undermining our most cherished beliefs. Since Darwin's theory of evolution through natural selection emerged, it has been a topic of contention: misrepresented, abused, denied, and fiercely scrutinized. In this strong defense of Darwin, Dennett explores every aspect of evolutionary thought to show why it is fundamental to our existence and why it affirms - rather than threatens - our beliefs about the meaning of life.

Daniel C. Dennett is one of the most original and provocative thinkers in the world. As an exceptional philosopher and political commentator, he is known for challenging unexamined orthodoxies and is a supporter of the Brights movement. His books include: Brainstorms, Brainchildren, Elbow Room, Breaking the Spell, The Dangerous Idea of Darwin, Consciousness Explained, and Freedom Evolves.
