A propos du livre

Revue de presse

This book is as good an introduction as any I have seen. (The Psychologist 2001-10-01)

This 150-page book is aimed at A Level students, and written in highly accessible language. It is clearly laid out with a wealth of examples and explanations inset in grey boxes in the main text. Each chapter also has a comprehensive summary with key words highlighted for easy revision. (The Open University Psychological Society Newslett 2001-09-01)

This ... is a fantastic resource for those of us who are still enjoying and enjoying teaching evolutionary explanations of human behaviour. This is a great approach, producing excellent discussion, whether or not one support this theme in modern psychology. It is also a very sound way to learn evaluative skills! The approach itself is explained, and then sections on sexual selection, pro- and anti-social behaviour (including criminal behaviour), cognition, and Darwinian medicine follow. This makes for truly interesting reading; a great resource for departments and libraries also. (Association for Teachers of Psychology newsletter 2001-09-01)
