Most popular posts (so far this month! but the list tends to remain roughly the same over time, newcomers rising slowly to the top)
Here’s the all time favorite, top of the list for over a year: http://darwiniana.com/2006/10/23/marilynne-robinson-on-dawkins/
A few of the runners up are in bold characters, Schopenhauer on death, posts on the Axial Age, ….
The Axial Age, despite very little publicity, is almost of as much interest as evolution.

The previous post on Nietzsche assumes the context of discussion here on this blog. But of course we can’t assume anything, so there are a lot of posts on Nietzshe here, on his crypto-Darwinism, the question of eugenics and evolution, and the book discussed here, Prophet of Nazism.

Neuroengineers take a pragmatic and direct approach. They are trying
to change brains by going in and just changing them.
http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2009/03/neuroengineering1?currentPage=all
Describing the brain and even the mind in terms taken from computer
science—Âinputs and outputs, software and circuits—is now so common
that it’s easy to miss its significance. But, as Ari N. Schulman
explains, this way of talking reveals a fundamental misunderstanding
of how both minds and computers work

A psychologist probes how altruism, Darwinism and neurobiology mean
that we can succeed by not being cutthroat

Viruses that target bacteria could help give antibiotics a boost

Babies display many of the characteristics that distinguish us from
other animals
