Darwinian Grandeur: A Biologist's Journey Through Evolution's "Tangled Bank" part 2

On Friday, Nov. 20, Kenneth R. Miller, Ph.D., a professor of biology at Brown University and this year's recipient of the Mendel Medal, will deliver the 2009 Mendel Medal Lecture, Darwinian Grandeur: A Biologists Journey Through Evolutions Tangled Bank, in the Connelly Center Cinema (2 p.m. refreshments followed by the 2:30 p.m. lecture). This is an event not to be missed. Dr. Miller is a pre-eminent evolutionary scientist. In addition, Miller is the author of the acclaimed book, Finding Darwins God: A Scientists Search for Common Ground Between God and Evolution, a lively and cutting-edge analysis of the key issues that seem to divide science and religion. He contends that, properly understood, evolution adds depth and meaning not only to a scientific view of the world, but also to a spiritual one.
