Dating from 1981, this collection of essays is thematically more
homogeneous than anything previously written by John O'Loughlin in
the genre and reflects a newly-acquired optimistic outlook on
evolutionary progress as something that should culminate in a
future paradise having nothing whatsoever to do with the cosmic
inception of life. Art, literature, music, sex, gender, history,
technology and religion are the principal themes under
consideration in this volume, and they're generally treated in
relation to the author's philosophy of evolution, which owes not a
little, in its origins, to the estimable likes of Friedrich
Nietzsche, Oswald Spengler, and Teilhard de Chardin. As usual for
his writings of this period, 'The Way of Evolution' ends with a
series of maxims which both summarize and encapsulate its overall
philosophy.
