Barash, The Wall Street Journal It has my vote for science book of the year. --Parul Sehgal, The New York Times Immensely readable, often hilarious.Hands-down one of the best books I've read in years. I loved it. --Dina Temple-Raston, The Washington Post From the bestselling author of>A Primate's Memoir>and the forthcoming>Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will comes a landmark, genre-defining examination of human behavior and an answer to the question: Why do we do the things we do? Behave is one of the most dazzling tours d'horizon of the science of human behavior ever attempted. Moving across a range of disciplines, Sapolsky--a neuroscientist and primatologist--uncovers the hidden story of our actions. Undertaking some of our thorniest questions relating to tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, and war and peace, Behave>is a towering achievement--a majestic synthesis of cutting-edge research and a heroic exploration of why we ultimately do the things we do . . . for good and for ill.
