Daniel Dennett's Darwinian Mind: An Interview with a 'Dangerous' Man by Chris Floyd -science-spirit.org
The outspoken philosopher of science distills his rigorous conceptions of consciousness, and aims withering fire at the dialogue between science and religion.
In matters of the mind--the exploration of consciousness, its correlation with the body, its evolutionary foundations, and the possibilities of its creation through computer technology--few voices today speak as boldly as that of philosopher Daniel Dennett. His best-selling works--among them Consciousness Explained and Darwin's Dangerous Idea--have provoked fierce debates with their rigorous arguments, eloquent polemic and witty, no-holds-barred approach to intellectual combat. He is often ranked alongside Richard Dawkins as one of the most powerful--and, in some circles, feared--proponents of thorough-going Darwinism.
