Annotation: 

Dr. Young has been a controversial and perceptive historian and philosopher of evolution, human consciousness, psychology and popular science for over forty years. This page includes most of the articles, speeches, essays and reviews that he has published since 1960. Each article includes a brief description and introduction and permits browsers to download the article or view it on their monitor. Included here are full-text books such as "Darwin's Metaphor: Nature's Place in Victorian Culture," and "Mind, Brain and Adaptation in the Nineteenth Century." Sadly, there is one notable absence from this list (probably due to copyright laws) - "Changing Perspectives in the History of Science." Otherwise researchers will find here much information - both technical and popular on the history of evolution, biology, consciousness and psychology.
