Cambridge University Press Genes, Genesis, and God: Values and Their Origins in Natural and Human History
If you're going to draw together genetics, science in general, ethics, and religion, it's not going to be a simple read. Having said that, <I>Genes, Genesis and God</I> is so well written that the intelligent lay person can grasp the author's arguments.<p> Holmes Rolston III is a Professor of Philosophy at Colorado State University. This book is based on his Gifford Lectures at the University of Edinburgh in 1997. What role, he asks, do genes play in the evolution of mankind? For Rolston, man is not seen just as a superior animal, but as both a creator and creature of culture; this is what distinguishes us from the beasts. <p> He examines carefully recent evolutionary theories, including Richard Dawkins' selfish gene concept, which he finds not only misnamed but misleading. The first couple of chapters look at genes, what they are and how they work, what they do and don't do. From this he moves onto the genesis of human culture, and then to the evolution of scientific ideas, ethics, and finally religion. Religion, he concludes in his final deeply-thoughtful and clearly-argued chapter, which will annoy atheist evolution advocates and fundamentalist creationists alike, does have a survival value for mankind, and is not in any way incompatible with genetics or evolutionary theory.<p>This book is a valuable contribution to the philosophy of science. A single criticism would be that there is no reference to the recent work of Jack Cohen and Ian Stewart, who pursue a very similar path of enquiry into the evolution of the curious mind in their <I>Figments of Reality</I>. --<I>David V Barrett</I>
