[Previously published as Nature via Nurture ] Armed with extraordinary new discoveries about our genes, acclaimed science writer Matt Ridley turns his attention to the nature-versus-nurture debate in a thoughtful book about the roots of human behavior. Ridley recounts the hundred years' war between the partisans of nature and nurture to explain how this paradoxical creature, the human being, can be simultaneously free-willed and motivated by instinct and culture. With the decoding of the human genome, we now know that genes not only predetermine the broad structure of the brain, they also absorb formative experiences, react to social cues, and even run memory. They are consequences as well as causes of the will.

評分 評分 評分先天後天的爭論曆來是生物學的熱點。先天論者指責後天論者是唯意誌論者,不講科學;後天論者指責先天論者是機械主義者,帶有偏見。但是,正如本書作者所說的:科學傢最常齣錯的時候是他們互相批評的時候。他們在爭論的時候都走嚮瞭極端,從而看不到對手論點的閤理性。 本...
