I don't know how I've overlooked this for so long: Extensive excerpts from Robert Wright's "Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny" are available at this web site. Since I can't afford to buy many books anymore, and almost never get a chance to go get them from the library, I like finding big chunks of fairly recent books on teh Internets. Yay Internets. I especially enjoyed this excerpt which was adapted for publication in The New Yorker several years ago, in which Wright explains why the late Stephen Jay Gould was the creationists' favorite evolutionist. I always find irony at least mildly entertaining.
