L'idée que nous "descendions" du singe via des créatures aussi pittoresques que notre ancêtre Cro-Magnon n'est toujours pas pleinement acceptée. Nous sommes pourtant soumis, comme les autres animaux, au grand jeu de l'évolution. C'est ce que montre ici, en toute simplicité, mais avec toutes les références scientifiques requises, un spécialiste de "biologie évolutive". Pourquoi y a t-il de plus en plus de myopes ? Faut-il combattre la fièvre ? La polygamie est-elle liée au régime politique ? L'homosexualité a-t-elle des causes biologiques ? La crise d'adolescence est-elle une invention récente ? Pourquoi l'ainé est-il plus favorisé que le cadet ? Les hommes et les femmes pensent-ils de la même façon ? La théorie de l'évolution, en donnant des explications qui remontent parfois très loin dans le passé, apporte sur ces sujets comme sur bien d'autres un regard neuf et passionnant : nul doute qu'à la lecture de ce livre, Cro-Magnon serait devenu un adepte de la biologie évolutive.

We're all hypocrites. Why? Hypocrisy is the natural state of the human mind. Robert Kurzban shows us that the key to understanding our behavioral inconsistencies lies in understanding the mind's design. The human mind consists of many specialized units designed by the process of evolution by natural selection. While these modules sometimes work together seamlessly, they don't always, resulting in impossibly contradictory beliefs, vacillations between patience and impulsiveness, violations of our supposed moral principles, and overinflated views of ourselves. This modular, evolutionary psychological view of the mind undermines deeply held intuitions about ourselves, as well as a range of scientific theories that require a "self" with consistent beliefs and preferences. Modularity suggests that there is no "I." Instead, each of us is a contentious "we"--a collection of discrete but interacting systems whose constant conflicts shape our interactions with one another and our experience of the world. In clear language, full of wit and rich in examples, Kurzban explains the roots and implications of our inconsistent minds, and why it is perfectly natural to believe that everyone else is a hypocrite.
