Summary

An account of the intellectual feud between camps of Darwinian thought. The text considers the group of scientists and anthropologists which follow Richard Dawkins, and those that follow the ideas of Stephen Jay Gould, both of whom agree that Darwinian evolution can explain the appearance and complexity of living beings, but little else.
