Reviews
"It is highly recommended . . . to researchers firmly settled within one of the many single disciplines in question. Not only will they encounter a wealth of information from the humanities, the social sciences and the natural sciences, but the book will also serve as an invitation to look beyond the horizons of their own fields."--Eveline Seghers, Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture "The most important work on a science of human culture in years."--Leda Cosmides, University of California, Santa Barbara "Pascal Boyer has written a wide-ranging, clear, and convincing book. It is an essential reading for anyone who wants to better understand the workings of our social world."--Hugo Mercier, co-author of The Enigma of Reason "Pascal Boyer's elegant and insightful essays on human nature and human society show the power of combining anthropology, evolutionary theory, and cognitive psychology. I particularly like his balance and even-handedness in evaluating various contending social theories."--Herbert Gintis, author of Individuality and Entanglement: The Moral and Material Bases of Social Life "Read Pascal Boyer's cool and captivating new book Minds Make Societies .

Synopsis
A watershed book that masterfully integrates insights from evolutionary biology, genetics, psychology, economics, and more to explore the development and workings of human societies, A watershed book that masterfully integrates insights from evolutionary biology, genetics, psychology, economics, and more to explore the development and workings of human societies "There is no good reason why human societies should not be described and explained with the same precision and success as the rest of nature." Thus argues evolutionary psychologist Pascal Boyer in this uniquely innovative book. Integrating recent insights from evolutionary biology, genetics, psychology, economics, and other fields, Boyer offers precise models of why humans engage in social behaviors such as forming families, tribes, and nations, or creating gender roles. In fascinating, thought-provoking passages, he explores questions such as, Why is there conflict between groups? Why do people believe low-value information such as rumors? Why are there religions? What is social justice? What explains morality? Boyer provides a new picture of cultural transmission that draws on the pragmatics of human communication, the constructive nature of memory in human brains, and human motivation for group formation and cooperation.

    The book arrived sooner than expected. It was packaged extremely well to insure the book was not damaged. The item was in near perfect condition, like new, as they advertised it. And the item was priced right. I originally purchased this book in 1981 and was glad to see I could obtain a copy of it. I am very pleased with this seller.
