The BHA Darwin Day event in London <\/a>is sold out already. Tim Lewens, lecturer in the history and philosophy of science, will talk on \u2018Charles Darwin \u2013 a philosophical naturalist\u2019. But if you\u2019re interested, the Guardian has just posted a podcast featuring him<\/a> as part of their rather excellent celebration of all things Darwin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you want more, he\u2019s also written a book on Darwin<\/a>, and you can check out a (rather lengthy, but very interesting!) 2007 interview with him here<\/a>. It includes an excellent discussion of the implications of Darwin\u2019s theories for religion.<\/p>\n

In March 2007, Paul White of the Darwin Correspondence Project interviewed Tim Lewens of the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Cambridge. Dr Lewens is the author of Organisms and Artifacts<\/em> (2004), which examines the language and arguments for design in biology and philosophy. He has also just completed a book on the role of Darwin and Darwinism in modern philosophy: Darwin<\/em> (2007). In this interview, Dr Lewens discusses the role of Darwin in modern science, the arguments for intelligent design in nature, the implications of evolution for religious belief, and the importance of a historical understanding of Darwin\u2019s work.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
