Back to Methuselah: A Metabiological Pentateuch

• Példány állapota: jó

Relentless questions about science, politics, and the future confront readers in this bold, satirical work. Through character voices and sharp debates, the text traces how ideas about evolution, religion, and social reform collide with power, ideology, and everyday life.

In this excerpt, a group of mid-20th-century thinkers grapple with Neo-Darwinism, the politics of progress, and the ethics of longevity. They test whether grand theories can guide real-world policy, and whether educated optimism can survive political manipulation and public ignorance.

What you’ll

Witty, provocative discussions about evolution, science, and belief.
A candid look at how big ideas become political tools and campaigns.
Character-driven scenes that mix philosophy with humor and human frailty.
Hints of a larger, speculative vision about civilization’s future.

Ideal for readers curious about how science, society, and spectacle collide in modern thought, and for fans of sharp, theatrical dialogues that push ideas to the edge.
