| Darwin@LSE's
public lecture series aims to make the exciting developments
in evolutionary theory available to a wide audience. The
first series of lectures ran from 1995 to 1998. They included
talks by John Maynard Smith, Robert Trivers, John Tooby,
Leda Cosmides, Steven Pinker, Martin Daly, Margo Wilson,
Matt Ridley, Daniel Dennett, Peter Singer, Paul Ekman and
David Buss. The second series of lectures began in 2005,
with talks by Richard Dawkins and Simon Baron-Cohen.
We have now compiled a comprehensive archive
of all our past events, with links to the media articles
that they inspired. We hope that this unrivalled collection
will further the aims of the original Darwin Seminars by
providing an indispensable resource for anyone with an interest
in human nature – from students to scientists, from
journalists to artists, from beginners to experts.
The
Selfish Gene: Thirty Years On
A full

the other talks.
