“Evolution is a large political controversy as to what should be taught in the schools. But there is no scientific controversy that we evolved when we talk about evidence from fossils and DNA.” ShouldSchoolPoliticalTaughtEvolutionEvidenceDnaFossilsControversy Author:Carl Zimmer
“In the course of evolution nature has gone to endless trouble to see that every individual is unlike every other individual....Physically and mentally, each one of us is unique. Any culture which, in the interests of efficiency or in the name of some political or religious dogma, seeks to standardize the human individual, commits an outrage against man's biological nature.” MenHumansPoliticalCultureCoursesNamesIndividualInterestReligiousGoneTroubleEvolutionUniqueEndlessCommitDogmaEfficiencyOutrageReligious Dogma Author:Aldous Huxley
“For Immanuel Kant, the term anthropology embraced all the human sciences, and laid the foundation of familiar knowledge we need, to build solidly grounded ideas about the moral and political demands of human life. Margaret Mead saw mid-twentieth-century anthropology as engaged in a project no less ambitious than Kant's own, and her Terry Lectures on Continuities in Cultural Evolution provide an excellent point to enter into her reflections.” NeedsHumansIdeasPoliticalTermMoralSawsCenturyEvolutionDemandProjectsReflectionFoundationFamiliarExcellentHuman LifeEngagedAmbitiousGroundedLecturesTwentieth CenturyContinuityAnthropologyMead Author:Margaret Mead
“It must be said that today, at the end of its semantic evolution, the word 'terrorist' is an intrinsically propagandistic term. It has no neutral readability.

“Like Richard Ellmann on James Joyce, Arnold Rampersad on Ralph Ellison is in a class of its own. His masterful and magisterial book is the most powerful and profound treatment of Ellison's undeniable artistic genius, deep personal flaws, and controversial political evolution. And he reveals an Ellison unbeknownst to all of us. From now on, all serious scholarship on Ellison must begin with Rampersad's instant and inimitable classic in literary biography.” BookPoliticalPowerfulClassSeriousEvolutionGeniusProfoundArtisticClassicInstantTreatmentMost PowerfulFlawsBiographiesScholarshipControversialJoyceArtistic Genius Author:Cornel West
“Freedom is the very essence of life, the impelling force in all intellectual and social development, the creator of every new outlook for the future of mankind. The liberation of man from economic exploitation and from intellectual and political oppression, which finds its finest expression in the world-philosophy of Anarchism, is the first prerequisite for the evolution of a higher social culture and a new humanity.” MenWorldFirstsPhilosophyPoliticalHumanityCultureForceSocialEconomicMankindExpressionDevelopmentEvolutionHigherIntellectualEssenceCreatorOppressionLiberationExploitationFinestOutlookAnarchismSocial DevelopmentPrerequisitesEssence Of LifePolitical OppressionFuture Of Mankind Book:Anarcho-Syndicalism: Theory and Practice Source: Anarcho-Syndicalism: Theory and Practice
