Monkeyluv by Robert Sapolsky
And Other Essays on Our Lives as Animals
A lively, accessible collection of essays that uses primate behavior, neuroscience, and evolutionary biology to illuminate why humans think and act the way they do, exploring themes such as free will versus biological determinism, the roots of aggression and compassion, the effects of stress on the body and society, and how genes and culture interact; written with wit and clear storytelling, it challenges readers to understand human behavior as both biologically grounded and morally significant, while urging humility and empathy in how we view ourselves and other animals.
