Synopsis:

This book examines the influence of evolutionary theory, particularly Darwinism, on the development of the social sciences, arguing that the key concepts of variation, selection, transmission, and adaptation are operative in human societies just as they are in organic evolution. The author traces the history of evolutionary theory in social science, from its origins in the work of Darwin and Spencer to its contemporary applications in fields such as economics, political science, and sociology. The book also explores the implications of evolutionary theory for our understanding of human nature and social institutions, and argues that it provides a powerful framework for understanding the diversity and complexity of human societies.
