With the advent of what has become known as the cognitive revolution, psychologists are now exploring the evolved problem-solving and information-processing mechanisms that allow humans to absorb and generate culture. This book introduces the newly emerging field of evolutionary psychology.

From reviews of the hardback: "A fascinating book which deserves a wide audience." European Medical Journal"a very significant contribution to the field of evolutionary thinking on human psychology and culture." British Journal of Medical PsychologyResearchers have long been aware that the species-typical architecture of the human mind is the product of our evolutionary history, but it has only been in the last three decades that advances in such fields as evolutionary biology, cognitive psychology, and paleoanthropology have been made which have highlighted these changes. This book introduces the newly crystallizing field of evolutionary psychology to a wider scientific audience and focuses on the evolved information-processing mechanisms that comprise the human mind.
