Evolutionary Philosophy is the foundation text for a new belief system. We are all products of evolution. Understanding all of the implications of this statement leads to a comprehensive worldview that can answer our universally shared Where did I come from? What am I? What is a good life? How do I know? These questions and many more are answered in this book, before the beliefs of 60 of the top philosophers of history are put to the test in an evaluation of the survival of their fittest ideas. This is an audacious work of research and analysis from author Ed Gibney, who finishes by asking readers to help Evolutionary Philosophy to grow and adapt as mankind's knowledge continues to accumulate. This clear and accessible work promises to help you reevaluate mankind's place in the universe and your place in society.
Ed Gibney loves a good life and has traveled the world looking for the best ones. He grew up with Amish neighbors in rural Pennsylvania, worked on construction sites in the deserts of the American West, was broadened by the cosmopolitan diversity of San Francisco, spent a summer consulting for an Inuit community in Alaska, served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Ukraine, made government more efficient at the headquarters of the FBI and the Secret Service, wrote novels and philosophy by the seaside in the north of England, and currently resides in Vienna, Austria, the world’s most livable city. Almost all of this was with his wife of nearly 25 years who has been a police officer, a Senate volunteer, a professor of criminology, and a head of research for the United Nations. He can’t wait to see what’s next.
