Description
"The claim of genetics and evolutionary psychology to explain and indeed legislate on the human condition have been loudly trumpeted in recent years in a host of popular books." "Biologists, social scientists and philosophers have begun to rebel against this roughshod ride over their different understandings of the world, demonstrating that the claims of evolutionary psychology rest on shaky empirical evidence, flawed premises and unexamined political presuppositions. In this provocative and groundbreaking book, Hilary Rose and Steven Rose have gathered together the leading and outspoken critics of this fashionable ideology, from Britain and the United States, in a shared and perhaps uniquely cross-disciplinary project." "The result of this joint work is a critique of the most fashionable ideology of recent years. What emerges is a new perspective which challenges the reductionism of evolutionary psychology ad offers a richer understanding of the biosocial nature of the human condition."--BOOK JACKET.
