Objective Proficiency p 24. Peter Singer - The Genius of Darwin: The Uncut Interviews - Richard Dawkins. Extra Listening



In 2008, the evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins presented The Genius of Charles Darwin, a three-part documentary that was later named “Best TV Documentary Series” at the British Broadcast Awards. During the filming of the program, Dawkins interviewed various experts – biologists, philosophers, clergymen, evolutionary psychologists, etc.
Above, Dawkins spends a good while with Peter Singer, the Princeton philosopher, otherwise known as the Father of the Animal Rights Movement. The wide-ranging conversation continually comes back to animal rights and vegetarianism and why Darwinism lends support to both.
Other uncut interviews feature conversations with Steven Pinker, Daniel Dennett, and Craig Venter.
