Synopsis
What do we mean when we say things like "It's only human nature" or "To err is human"? Indeed, what do we mean by "human nature"? The author explores these questions and how we came to accept certain things about ourselves as unchangeable, bedrock characteristics. In this book, human nature as demonstrated by values, emotion, gender roles, intelligence, consciousness, aggression, and personal freedom is explored in the context of both evolution and the social fabric (nature and nurture). Drawing on contemporary knowledge in psychology, evolution, and the social sciences, the presentation is also influenced by the interaction of history and cultural forces.
