The Philosophical Legacy of Darwin

More than a century and a half after On the Origin of Species, Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution continues to shape our thinking, not only in biology, but also in psychology, economics, and all other attempts to understand human beings including philosophy. Ken and John delve into Darwin’s theory and its implications for philosophy with Daniel Dennett from Tufts University, author of Darwin’s Dangerous Idea: Evolution and the Meanings of Life.
