Die kulturwissenschaftliche Rezeption der Biologie ist vor 60 Jahren, bei Arnold Gehlen, stehen geblieben. Deshalb gibt das Buch zunächst eine kritische Einführung in die beiden wichtigsten neueren Entwicklungen der Verhaltensbiologie, in die Soziobiologie und in die Evolutionäre Psychologie. Auf dieser Basis werden dann die drei Säulen errichtet, die eine biologische Kultur- und Literaturtheorie tragen sollen: (1) Das Zusammenwirken von genetischen Dispositionen und kultureller Umwelt wird darauf zurückgeführt, dass die biologischen Verhaltensprogramme des Menschen unter dem Druck wechselnder Umwelten Suchimpulse entwickelt haben, die mit kulturellen Informationen beantwortet werden – daher die Formbarkeit der kulturbezogenen Programme, d. h. die Möglichkeit, in extrem variablen Milieus erfolgreich zu agieren. (2) Aus der ursprünglich »trifunktionalen« Protosprache der menschenähnlichen Tiere hat sich im Laufe der menschlichen Evolution die Möglichkeit einer Isolierung des Sachbezugs ausdifferenziert. Damit können mentale Einheiten von den Personen abgelöst und in den Status von »Gegenständen« versetzt werden. Diese Leistung der Vergegenständlichung bildet die Grundlage sowohl für den spezifisch menschlichen »kaskadierenden« Kulturtyp als auch die Möglichkeit der reflektierenden Selbst-Vergegenständlichung. Wichtigstes Mittel der strukturierten Speicherung von Informationen wird das Erzählen. (3) Die Argumentationslinie wird bis zu Kunst und poetischer Literatur durchgezogen. Damit kommt ein verhaltensbiologischer Sachverhalt in den Blick, der von den Evolutionsbiologen notorisch unterbelichtet wird: Der evolutive Stress-Lust-Mechanismus, der das alte Paradigma des Klauen-und-Zähne-Darwinismus relativieren und ergänzen kann.

This encyclopedia was designed with the overarching goal to collect together in a single resource the knowledge generated by this interdisciplinary field, highlighting the links between science and practice. In it, scholars, health care practitioners and the general public will find a wealth of information on topics such as physical activity, stress and health, smoking, pain management, social support and health, cardiovascular health, health promotion, and HIV/AIDS. Anderson (American Psychological Association; he was long affiliated with the Harvard U. School of Public Health), along with six associate editors, has edited a notable new resource on the topic of health and behavior. Topics of the alphabetically arranged entries were chosen for their relevance to theories and methods, biopsychosocial interactions and basic behavioral and social processes, epidemiology of risk and protective factors, health promotion and disease prevention, treatment and rehabilitation, and policy and organizational issues. (A reader's guide indexes the entries according to these themes.) A random sample of individual topics: ecological momentary assessment, effect modification, erectile dysfunction, peptic ulcers and stress, social marketing, theory of reasoned action, asthma and stress, the Framingham Heart Study, behavioral risk factor surveillance system, self- reported health, and eating disorders. Each entry includes a basic definition followed by a detailed description. This encyclopedia comprehensively covers all aspects of what has become the dynamic domain of behavioral medicine. It collects together the knowledge generated by this interdisciplinary field, highlighting the links between science and practice.

Elle prend sous son charme tous les champs de la connaissance. Elle remet en question les règles de la morale en vigueur. Elle triomphe, elle séduit, elle colonise. Elle : la génétique. N’aurait-elle pas tendance à ratisser trop large ? Chaque comportement aurait ainsi son gène, chaque vice et chaque vertu, presque. Pour l’intempérance, nous aurions ainsi le choix avec les gènes de l’appétence pour l’alcool, le sucre ou le gras. Pour l’orgueil, il y aurait le gène de la dominance chez la souris… Qu’en est-il des maladies mentales, des déficits intellectuels et de la violence chez l’homme ? Et voilà trois ans, il a beaucoup été question du gène de l’infidélité. L’un des spécialistes français les plus engagés dans ce domaine livre toutes les clés permettant de saisir ce que la génétique apporte vraiment à la compréhension de ce que nous sommes… et de résister à la tentation du « tout génétique » !
