Description
Darwin's Unfinished Symphony: How Culture Made the Human Mind by Kevin N. Lala presents a groundbreaking new theory of human cognitive evolution. This accessible book reveals how culture is not just the end product of an evolutionary process, but also the driving force behind it. The story of Darwin's intellectual descendants and their pursuit to understand the evolution of the human mind is one of painstaking fieldwork, key experiments, false leads, and stunning scientific breakthroughs. Lala tells the tale of how this new understanding came about, shedding light on the complex relationship between culture and human evolution. By exploring the intersection of science and culture, Darwin's Unfinished Symphony offers a fresh perspective on the human mind and its unique capacity for devising and transmitting culture.
