New Book: Evolution and Human Culture: Texts and Contexts

St. Francis College English Professor Gregory Tague continues his work bridging the divide between liberal arts and the sciences with his new publication Evolution and Human Culture: Texts and Contexts (Brill).

Evolution and Human Culture tackles the question of whether culture transcends nature or if it is tied integrally within human nature and morality. Professor Tague's research crosses a number of inter-disciplinary fields including: the arts, humanities, cultural studies, philosophy, and biology.

The text is his sixth scholarly book and continues the research he began more than a decade ago and recently released in Making Mind: Moral Sense and Consciousness in Philosophy, Science, and Literature (Rodopi).

The Preface, Table of Contents, and chapter subheadings, as well as a link to the Brill site are available at: https://sites.google.com/site/gftague/
