Unto Others: The Evolution and Psychology of Unselfish Behavior
Harvard University Press (1998)
Abstract
The authors demonstrate that unselfish behavior is in fact an important feature of both biological and human nature. Their book provides a panoramic view of altruism throughout the animal kingdom--from self-sacrificing parasites to the human capacity for selflessness--even as it explains the evolutionary sense of such behavior.Author Profiles
