It took the concept of sexual selection for Darwin to explain that a process that has more to do with aesthetics than the practical. Survival of the Beautiful is a revolutionary new examination of the interplay of beauty art & culture in evolution. Taking inspiration from Darwins observation that animals have a natural aesthetic sense philosopher & musician David Rothenberg probes why animals humans included have innate appreciation for beauty-and why nature is indeed beautiful. Sexual selection may explain why animals desire but it says very little about what they desire. Why will a bowerbird literally murder another bird to decorate its bower with the victims blue feathers? Why do butterfly wings boast such brilliantly varied patterns?
