Way of Evolution

'The Way of Evolution' combines nine substantial essays with an aphoristic appendix as it strives to delineate evolutionary trends and to uphold the desirability of transcendental artificiality in the face of naturalistic tradition. Subjects range from gender and class to literature and music, as well as an interesting variant on the 'philosophy of history' as propounded by the estimable likes of Oswald Spengler, Simone Weil, Lewis Mumford, and even Malcolm Muggeridge, all of whom the author is keen both to utilize and transcend.
