| Abstract
|
:
|
"If our history is defined by evolution, and our future shaped by our genes, is our reasoning driven only by biology or are we still free to make moral choices?" "Yes we are, says philosopher and ethicist Neil Levy in his new study. For although genetics and the DNA revolution may have uncovered our building blocks, and evolutionary psychology our ancient instincts, only philosophy and culture can give use the tools we need to make informed ethical decisions."--Jacket
