Evolutionary Philosophy

by Ed Gibney

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.

About the author

Ed Gibney has left two different six-figure-salary careers behind to lead a simpler but more meaningful life as an author and philosopher. He first left the engineering and construction industry to go back to school for his MBA, which he used to do management consulting work for the Peace Corps, the FBI, the Secret Service, and the Department of Homeland Security. In 2012, he launched his third career with a website devoted to discussing his evolutionary philosophy (www.evphil.com) and the fiction it inspires. He has published three short stories (Curiosity, Love of Learning, and Judgment) and one novel (Draining the Swamp) as well as an academic article proposing a solution to the greatest problem in moral philosophy, which was accepted in a peer-reviewed journal.
