EVOLVED SELF PUBLISHING: Reading “On the Origin of Species...” in my
mid teens gave me a lifelong concern for evolution as the source of meaning,
and led me to study biochemistry at University College London. In my 50’s I
began writing the series of books exploring the meaning of evolution, now
published under the imprint “Evolved Self Publishing.” In the course of writing
these books I lost my belief in natural selection and the Modern Synthesis and,
in all but the first of my books, “Father...”, I became critical of neo-Darwinism
and began featuring a new theory of evolution, along the lines proposed by
Samuel Butler.

PLAY: 90-minute play about my ideas in the form of a dialogue between
Charles Darwin and Galileo, that I offer to perform for regional university
student philosophy groups, or actually anyone at all! It is titled “What it means
we evolved: dialogue between Darwin and Galileo.” I play both roles, dressed
as Darwin.
DARWIN IMPERSONATION: Two 20-minute presentations, in which I, as
Charles Darwin, channel Galileo to question everything we think we know
about how we evolved. Sound recordings:
How We Evolved, One
How We Evolved, Two
