Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller • Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize • One of the Washington Post's 10 Best Books of the Year “It’s no exaggeration to say that Behave is one of the best nonfiction books I’ve ever read.” —David P. Barash, The Wall Street Journal "It has my vote for science book of the year.” —Parul Sehgal, The New York Times "Immensely readable, often hilarious...Hands-down one of the best books I’ve read in years. I loved it." —Dina Temple-Raston, The Washington Post From the bestselling author of A Primate's Memoir and the forthcoming Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will comes a landmark, genre-defining examination of human behavior and an answer to the question: Why do we do the things we do? Behave is one of the most dazzling tours d’horizon of the science of human behavior ever attempted. Moving across a range of disciplines, Sapolsky—a neuroscientist and primatologist—uncovers the hidden story of our actions. Undertaking some of our thorniest questions relating to tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, and war and peace, Behave is a towering achievement—a majestic synthesis of cutting-edge research and a heroic exploration of why we ultimately do the things we do . . . for good and for ill.

Book excerpt: This book challenges, with several powerful arguments, some of our deepest beliefs about rationality, morality, and personal identity. The author claims that we have a false view of our own nature; that it is often rational to act against our own best interests; that most of us have moral views that are directly self-defeating; and that, when we consider future generations the conclusions will often be disturbing. He concludes that moral non-religious moral philosophy is a young subject, with a promising but unpredictable future.

Download or read book Why We Behave Like Human Beings Classic Reprint written by George Amos Dorsey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Why We Behave Like Human Beings By complete I mean comprehensive. This is the most comprehensive account of human beings that I know of. It is as up-to-date as I can make it. It moves as fast as I can make it, and avoids blind alleys which lead nowhere. It does touch many problems not yet solved or only partially guessed at; its handling of such problems is as sound and sane as I can make it with the help of many friends. This does not commit them for my errors of omission and com mission, nor lessen my responsibility for statements of fact or inferences from facts and hypotheses - nor signify that they approve an anthropologist's use of their materials for his story.

Download or read book Why We Behave written by Maurice Cayem, PhD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-11-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines and explains the biological basis of behavior. It attempts to join applied behavior analysis with sociobiology and attempts to develop a behavioral sociobiological view of behavior. In short, it presents an experiential model based on research in the fields of biology, neurology, and brain science. Once the model is introduced, the book explains the practical use of this information and its role in intervention approaches, particularly in the developmentally disabled population. This approached is then widened into a discussion for the search for truth, balance, and practical applications in everyday life.
Download or read book Why We Act Like Canadians written by Pierre Berton and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this challenging book, written as a series of open letters to an American friend, Pierre Berton reaches into his profound knowledge of the country’s history and geography to dissect, praise, explain and occasionally criticize the national character. He does so, not with abstract opinions but with apt and colourful examples taken from the past and the present: Sam Steele’s gold rush censorship of the Turkish Whirlwind Danseuse; Ontario’s grudging acceptance of beer in three Toronto ballparks; New York’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade; Lorne Greene’s rueful return to Toronto; William Van Horne’s tirade against winter carnivals; the role of Kentucky in the War of 1812; W.A.C. Bennett’s surprising takeover of the B.C. Electric Company on the day of its president’s funeral. All these apparently disconnected incidents are woven into a carefully thought-out dissection of the national character, a distillation of more than thirty years of Berton research.
