Book Description: Traditional views of human nature focus on the supernatural, defining us as creatures with souls, minds, and spirits that transcend our physical attributes. In this provocative book, distinguished scientist and historian Elof Axel Carlson argues for a different understanding of ourselves based on our biology—cellular organization, genetics, life cycle, evolution, and our origins as a species. This interpretation would not negate our capacity for imagination, spiritual and emotional yearnings, or aesthetic appreciation for art, music, and literature. Carlson challenges educators, the media, and public policy makers to integrate the evidence from science more fully into our understanding of ourselves.Related Titles from the Publisher Times of Triumph, Times of Doubt: Science and the Battle for Public Trust [Hardcover] The Unfit: A History of a Bad Idea [Hardcover] Mendel's Legacy: The Origin of Classical Genetics [Hardcover]
