In "Evolution as a Religion", Mary Midgley examines how science comes to be used as a substitute for religion and points out how badly that role distorts it. She exposes the illogical logic of poor doctrines that shelter themselves behind the prestige of science.
According to The Guardian, Midgley is ''the foremost scourge of scientific pretentions in this country; someone whose wit is admired even by those who fee she sometimes oversteps the mark''. This book examines how science comes to be used as a substitute for religion and points out how badly that role distorts it. Her argument is flawlessly insightful: a punch, compelling, lively indictment of these misuses of science. Both the book and its author are true classics of our time.
