– Jared Diamond, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel and Collapse Put them together, what do you get? Greg Graffin, and this uniquely fascinating book." Take another man who wonders whether vertebrates arose in rivers or in the ocean, is fascinated by evolution, creativity, and Ice Age animals.
"Take one man who rejects authority and religion, and leads a punk band. He's one of a small but growing number of atheists in the United States willing to talk about the damage they believe religion can do."
"Graffin is one of those rare people who seem to have combined two lives into one. " explains how evolution can be a guide to life." But Graffin and Olson manage to weave the seemingly disparate concepts together into a satisfying narrative." " Anarchy Evolution sets out to draw connections between evolution, naturalist thought and punk, an undertaking that might sound rife with the potential to be reachy – or preachy. "Bucking authority and the religious views of his family, Graffin explains how he has developed a personal philosophy that celebrates the power of nature." "Humble, challenging, and inspiring For Graffin, the appeal of both worlds was that, at their best, they challenged authority, dogma and given truths and opened up space for the anarchic process of creativity."
