In the exciting book Peter J. Wilson takes domestication as the starting point for his continued inquiry into human evolution. Wilson argues that settling down into a built environment was the most radical and farreaching innovation in human development and that it had a crucial effect on human psychology and social relations. The insights of this book point the way toward amendments to social theories that will challenge the professional reader and at the same time offer to the general reader an enriched understanding of human behavior and human history.This book is a rare occurrence: a total rethinking of a set of closely related fundamental problems in the understanding of human evolution.[An] immensely ambitious undertaking.Paul Wheatley, Contemporary SociologyThis approach merges societies in surprising ways.It certainly leads to some provocative and stimulating generalizations.John Bodley, American journal of Physical AnthropologyPerhaps this book is revolutionaryasking us to rethink human nature, its causes, its curesIt holds out the real possibilities of redoing the human condition by reconceptualizing the power of our environs.[Wilson] has given is a book that is hard to put down once begun, and one whose ideas are even harder to dismiss.Harvey B. Sarles, Contemporary PsychologyThis is definitely a book on which to sharpen ones wits.The author invites the reader to think with him about matters not only past but also present which have much relevance for our future.
