Preface
How reading the Bible as a work of cultural and scientific evolution can reveal new truths about how our species conquered the Earth.

Summary
The Bible is the bestselling book of all time. It has been venerated or excoriated as God's word, but so far no one has read the Bible for what it is: humanity's diary, chronicling our ancestors' valiant attempts to cope with the trials and tribulations of life on Earth. In The Good Book of Human Nature, evolutionary anthropologist Carel van Schaik explores this perspective.
