EBOOK Adapted Mind Evolutionary Psychology and the Generation of Culture
Opis
The Adapted Mind is an edited volume of original, commissioned papers centered on the complex, evolved psychological mechanisms that generate human behaviour and culture. It has two goals: the first is to introduce the newly crystallizing field of evolutionary psychology to a wider scientific audience. The second goal of this volume is to clarify how this new field, by focusing on the evolved information-processing mechanisms that comprise the human mind, supplies the necessary connection between evolutionary biology and social and cultural behaviour.
