The Darwin Wars

'Just as Darwinism now provides the main explanatory framework of our times, so disputes about Darwinism are really disputes about our very nature and place in the world,' (from the dust-jacket). Andrew Brown, a Templeton Prize-winning freelance journalist, surveys these deep-seated and often polemical and acrimonious disputes, 'conducted like musketry battles' (p.30), which are 'struggling for the soul of every reader' (p. xi).
