Synopsis
A brilliantly written, exceptionally clear, history of the evolution of "evolution" (the concept of evolution), during the late Renaissance, history's pivot-point, which constituted the beginning of the end of the religious worldview, and the beginning of the beginning of the scientific worldview. No better book exists concerning the start of "modernity."
