500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
General note | <br/>George Mandler begins with what we know about evolution and gene expression, then moves on to the complex phenomena of consciousness and emotion. The constraints of both nature and nurture are discussed as limiting forces on human development, and natural selection is considered in the context of our social fabric, which draws on both psychological and anthropological knowledge. Mandler considers human difference, particularly in regard to intelligence and gender, and discusses the nature of human values, including our need for morality and freedom. The book concludes with an appraisal of human cognition and language. |
