 This book fulfills the goal of giving a simple overview of the basic concepts of evolutionary psychology.
The authors describe the origins of evolutionary psychology and how it's distinguished from the larger field of general psychology. Various topics covered include the evolution of human social behavior (and why reputation is so important to us), dietary habits (why fatty, sugar-laden foods are so hard to ignore) and mating patterns.
A lot of drawings clearly explain the concepts. |
