Originally published in 1971 Evolution – Revolution is an
interdisciplinary volume examining inquiry around the central topic
of evolution and revolution. Containing contributions from a number
of eminent academics of the time, the book addresses the meaning
and application of evolution and revolution in the context, not of
what things are, or even how they behave, but how they become. The
broad interdisciplinary range of essays explores this concept
through the idea of development and change and argues that both
change, and development must be measured against concepts of flux
and that which endures. The editors of the book suggest that these
are the ‘invariants’ which contemporary thinkers are beginning
to accept as the process-counterparts of Platonic ‘immutables’.
Thus this volume examines the two ‘immutables’ of evolution and
revolution. The book covers the concept through essays in science,
philosophic concepts of rationalism and existentialism, art and
religion.
