Synopsis
This book provides an analysis of the profound changes in human society brought about by the evolutionary doctrine. The author demonstrates how Darwinian principles fundamentally shifted our understanding of social, ethical, and political systems. The focus is on the significant departure from the previous belief that individual interests were the primary driving force in social evolution. Instead, it is argued that the ultimate aim of natural selection is to benefit not just present generations but also the distant future. Through this lens, the book explores vital concepts such as the role of social institutions in shaping human behavior and the relationship between the present and the future in shaping our collective development. This book offers a refreshing perspective on the social implications of evolution, shedding light on the complexities of human progress.
