You need Java installed to view it.
This summer one of the books I read was constantly using evolution as
what seemed to be a synonym for progress. It was rather like the
technological optimism of the 19th century and early 20th century. By
the end of the book I was quite sick of the word evolution in the way it
was being used thus I have a little sympathy for Greg's position.
