Beyond Evolution: Human Nature and the Limits of Evolutionary Explanation

Beyond Evolution: Human Nature and the Limits of Evolutionary Explanation

by Anthony O ' Hear (Author)

Synopsis

Anthony O'Hear takes a stand against the fashion for explaining human behaviour in terms of evolution. He argues that evolutionary theory, successful as it is in explaining the development of living things, cannot give a satisfactory account of such distinctive facets of human life as self-consciousness, the quest for knowledge, and more.
