Michael Ruse

A Meaning to Life

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Does human life have meaning? Ever since Darwin, there has been great skepticism about whether a <"meaning of life>" was possible outside of religious belief. Is it possible to find meaning in human life? Philosopher of science Michael Ruse examines the question of meaning in life within Darwinian views of human nature. He argues that meaning in the Darwinian age can be found if we turn to a kind of Darwinian existentialism, seeing our evolved human natureas the source of all meaning, both in the intellectual and social worlds.
