From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yuval Levin is a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, a conservative think tank in Washington, D.C. In 2005 and 2006, he was a member of the White House domestic policy staff. He is the former chief of staff of the President's Council on Bioethics, a former Congressional staffer, and one of the founders of The New Atlantis magazine. He is the author of Tyranny of Reason and of numerous essays and articles dealing largely with political theory, science, technology, and public policy. Trained in political science at American University and the University of Chicago, he is considered by many a bioconservative and a Straussian, in the mold of his mentor, Leon Kass.[citation needed]
