Synopsis
From bestselling author Michael Shermer, an investigation of the evolution of morality that is "a paragon of popularized science and philosophy" The Sun (Baltimore)., From bestselling author Michael Shermer, an investigation of the evolution of morality that is "a paragon of popularized science and philosophy" The Sun (Baltimore) A century and a half after Darwin first proposed an "evolutionary ethics," science has begun to tackle the roots of morality. Just as evolutionary biologists study why we are hungry (to motivate us to eat) or why sex is enjoyable (to motivate us to procreate), they are now searching for the very nature of humanity. In The Science of Good and Evil , science historian Michael Shermer explores how humans evolved from social primates to moral primates; how and why morality motivates the human animal; and how the foundation of moral principles can be built upon empirical evidence. Along the way he explains the implications of scientific findings for fate and free will, the existence of pure good and pure evil, and the development of early moral sentiments among the first humans. As he closes the divide between science and morality, Shermer draws on stories from the Yanamam , infamously known as the "fierce people" of the tropical rain forest, to the Stanford studies on jailers' behavior in prisons. The Science of Good and Evil is ultimately a profound look at the moral animal, belief, and the scientific pursuit of truth ., From bestselling author Michael Shermer, an investigation of the evolution of morality that is "a paragon of popularized science and philosophy" The Sun (Baltimore) A century and a half after Darwin first proposed an "evolutionary ethics," science has begun to tackle the roots of morality.

- c***h (940)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExceptional quality and in perfect condition – even better than described! The seller shipped promptly, and their communication was top-notch, and packing was excellent. This was an outstanding value, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Highly recommend this seller!Invincible Amazon Prime Series Promo Sewing Kit - Image Comics Robert Kirkman (#375541183591)
- h***v (4)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseWhile I was easily able to tell right away that the three box cutters that I received were not "used once" I digress that the value that you get of three units for the advertised price point is too much of a bargain to pass up. Additionally, the seller used simple but effective packaging that was slipped into my mailbox without issue. Overall, if you were in the market to buy multiple PHC cutters, then this seller has got you covered!Pacific Handy Cutter S5 Safety Cutter - 3-in-1 Tool (3-pack) *used once* (#376008879055)
