The Paradox of Virtue

Richard Wrangham, a primatologist and anthropologist, an expert in the evolution of primates, a professor at Harvard University, thoroughly and accessibly examines the scientific discussion on the most important questions: why people, representatives of a single biological species, are characterized... by both remarkable kindness and unimaginable cruelty; how these qualities, sometimes going far beyond common sense, emerged and became established throughout human evolutionary history; where our moral feelings and concepts of good and evil come from; and the main question — are we doomed by our evolutionary paradox to an eternal threat of violence.
