Charles Darwin's theories on natural selection rank with those of Copernicus and Newton for their iconic stature in science. In The Darwinian Revolution, explore the remarkable story of Darwin's ideas, how scientists and religious leaders reacted to them, and the resulting sea change in human thought. In these 24 absorbing lectures taught by award-winning Professor Frederick Gregory, learn how a strikingly original scientific concept can break the boundaries of its discipline and influence society at large—in religion, politics, philosophy, and other spheres. By the conclusion, you'll realize the truly astounding implications of this provocative theory on all aspects of human life.
