Human Nature: A Critical Reader

Human Nature: A Critical Reader

Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Full

(Paperback)-Before Darwin published The Origin of Species in 1859, the meaning of "human nature" was anybody's guess. Why do we do what we do? To Darwin and his followers the answer is unequivocal: procreation and the continuation of the species represent the essence of human existence. Human Nature collects the first papers to test Darwinian theories on Homo sapiens. It also includes new critiques of those classics written both by the authors themselves, and by biologists who pioneered field studies, comparative studies, and cognitive studies on other species. It also adds a new introduction which covers current publications on human anatomy, physiology, emotions, cognition, and interaction. This is the first book that employs Darwin's theory of life to explain what we do and who we are.

    Pros & Cons :
    for me, the most important article was the one by tooby and cosmides, who brilliantly refuted and even ridiculed the sss model of the content-free, independent mind.

    Knowledge = power. Darwin's theory is the route to knowledge

    ...They proved that the human mind is not a blank which works with general purpose mental processes. On the contrary, the mind contains specialized mechanisms which evolved as adaptations to the soci ... read more
