'Michael Ruse's new book The Philosophy of Human Evolution is a historical and critical survey of the ways in which Darwinian thinking has clashed and interacted with the concerns of philosophers. Intended for a general audience, the book showcases Ruse's manifold skills as a writer. His prose is lucid, straightforward, and colloquial. Each paragraph leads into the next with elegant coherence and no complicated impediments to the smooth flow of ideas ... readers will bring away new facts and insights from this thoughtful little page-turner.' Matt Cartmill, Reports of the National Center for Science Education
'Ruse brings to the fore a diversity of important questions regarding human evolution ... written in a direct, effective style, with a promising chapter architecture ... a welcome supplement to recent books on human evolution.' Rasmus Grønfeldt Winther, Evolution
