The problem of war : Darwinism, Christianity, and their battle to understand human conflict / Michael Ruse.
by
Ruse, Michael. author.
New York, NY : Oxford University Press, [2019]
Description:
xiv, 261 pages ; 25 cm
Contents:
Darwinian evolutionary theory -- Darwinism as religion -- Two visions of war -- Darwinism after Darwin -- Onward Christian soldiers -- The biology of war -- Realists and pacifists -- From Hitler to Unesco -- The bomb and Vietnam -- Darwinian theory comes of age -- Rival paradigms -- Moving forward.
