具体描述

This book examines human psychology and behavior through the lens of modern evolutionary psychology. Evolutionary Psychology: The New Science of the Mind, 5/e provides students with the conceptual tools of evolutionary psychology, and applies them to empirical research on the human mind. Content topics are logically arrayed, starting with challenges of survival, mating, parenting, and kinship; and then progressing to challenges of group living, including cooperation, aggression, sexual conflict, and status, prestige, and social hierarchies. Students gain a deep understanding of applying evolutionary psychology to their own lives and all the people they interact with.

进化心理学告诉我们，人最根本需求便是生存和繁殖。祖先在面对食物、栖息和危险中进化了各种适应器，这让我们得以苟活。而面对繁殖，情况就要复杂多了。女人自古的择偶偏好便是高富帅，她们拥有的繁殖资源是贯穿男人生命周期的圣物，而男人得通过不断提升社会地位获得更多资源...
