The Morals of Evolution - Minot J Savage - Bog

""The Morals of Evolution"" is a book written by Minot Judson Savage that explores the relationship between evolution and morality. The author argues that evolution has played a significant role in shaping human morality and that our moral values have evolved alongside our physical characteristics. He examines various moral theories and argues that they can be better understood in light of the principles of evolution. The book also discusses the implications of evolution for ethical questions, such as the nature of right and wrong, the meaning of life, and the role of religion in moral development.
