Popular science author Marek Kohn will discuss how Wallace, the cofounder of Natural Selection, came to his theory and saw the massive implications it would have for our world. Kohn will look at how others have since linked evolution with human nature.
This is the 10th Annual Robert Grant Lecture. The title is based on on Wallace's account of the epiphany in which he discovered natural selection: âThen at once I seemed to see the whole effect of this ⦠â What others subsequently seemed to see, and what the whole effect of it really is, is the crux of debates over Darwinism and its varying representations.
