Universal Minds: Human Nature and the Science of Evolutionary Psychology

By (author) Leda Cosmides, By (author) John Tooby





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

The burgeoning new field of evolutionary psychology views the mind as a collection of tools designed by natural selection to solve the problems faced by our ancestors. From recognising faces to falling in love, from acquiring a language to reciprocating favours, this new science is at last unravelling the mystery of what it means to be human. Here two of the most influential researchers explain the science behind the headlines. They outline the intellectual framework of the discipline, describe its main findings and conclusions, and set out an agenda for future discussion. The result is a powerful and persuasive perspective on the evolution of human nature.
