Dukins against Gold the struggle of the evolving minds - Kim Sterling

Number of pages: 198 Publisher: Dar Satoro Book description: Over twenty years, Richard Dawkins and Stephen Jay Gould engaged in a fierce battle over the nature of evolution, which continued to escalate even after Gould's death in 2002. This book, which topped the bestseller lists worldwide upon its first publication, reveals the secrets of this battle about the strongest scientific evolutionary arguments. The Australian philosopher and professor of philosophy at the College of Social Sciences Research at the Australian National University, Kim Sterlney, narrates the fundamental differences that these two eminent scholars engaged in. It has been proven that the conflict between the evolutionary minds extended beyond the boundaries of evolution to reach the limits of science, and in Gould's case, to domains where science plays no role at all. Dawkins, who acknowledged that science is the sole bearer of the banner of enlightenment and rationality, reflects this.
