Sociobiology

The New Synthesis, Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Edition

Edward O. Wilson

Discover the controversial and groundbreaking discipline of Sociobiology in this classic work that started a major debate on nature versus nurture. Originally published in 1975, it's now available in its complete original version in paperback for the first time. The book argues that human social behavior, even human nature, has a biological foundation. Although it's been voted the most important book on animal behavior of all time, it has also faced fierce opposition from social scientists who have challenged its claims. However, over the last 25 years, research in human genetics and neuroscience has strengthened the case for a biological understanding of human nature. A must-read for anyone interested in the fascinating study of evolutionary psychology.
