"Clark's work is primarily philosophical and ethical. He brings his acute powers of analysis to bear on a wide range of traditionally distinct disciplines and texts, from Plato to science fiction, from the Bible to modern genetics, from philosophy of science to ethics, from Plotinus to G. K. Chesteron. A long opening chapter on the development of Darwinian theory s especially noteworthy. It is a beautifully written and erudite study that weaves together insights about the history of evolutionary biology, the philosophy of causation, the concept of species, and the social and political uses to which biological theory has been put."Clark, Stephen R. L. is the author of 'Biology and Christian Ethics' with ISBN 9780521561310 and ISBN 0521561310.
