Feared and admired in equal measure, Mary Midgley has carefully yet profoundly challenged many of the scientific and moral orthodoxies of the twentieth century. The Essential Mary Midgleycollects for the first time the very best of this famous philosopher's work, described by theFinancial Timesas 'common sense philosophy of the highest order'.This unrivalled introduction to a great philosopher and brilliant writer incorporates carefully selected excerpts from Mary Midgley's bestselling books, includingWickedness, Beast and Man, Science and Poetry, andThe Myths We Live By. With a specially written foreword by James Lovelock, this classic text presents a superb and eminently readable insight into questions she has returned to time and again in her renowned sharp prose. This anthology discusses major topics, such as the roots of human nature, reason and imagination, the myths of science and the importance of holism in thinking about science and the environment. | The Essential Mary Midgley by David Midgley, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
