Quotes with reductionists

Quotes 1 till 1 of 1.

• The people I really do dislike are the morally unimaginative kind of evolutionary reductionists who, in the name of science, think they can explain everything in terms of our early hominid ancestors or our genes, with their combination of high-handed tone and disregard for history. Such reductive speculation encourages a really empty scientism.

  Bernard Williams
  English philosopher (1929 - 2003)
