David Sloan Wilson: Abundant Life: An Evolutionary Perspective

Watch an interview with David Sloan Wilson.

David Sloan Wilson (Darwin’s Cathedral: Evolution, Religion, and the Nature of Society) studies how religions and cultures co-evolve, for good or ill. He is in a unique position to frame the challenge to faiths today: the survival and flourishing of the human race. A Distinguished Professor of Biological Sciences and Anthropology at Binghamton University, Wilson founded The Neighborhood Project, which applies evolutionary theory to improve the quality of life in his struggling city.
