A dizzyingly ambitious project. Books that change the world are often poorly written, and books that are well written can often be fundamentally wrong. Geoffrey Miller's book is a wonderful counterexample - an elegantly and wittily crafted work that presents a new, world-changing scientific theory. One of the brightest gems in modern evolutionary theory. Miller is top-notch. Insightful and brilliant. This book is an inspiring example of interconnected thinking. It indeed weaves such a diverse web that no single reviewer can do it justice. So far, the most exciting science book of the year. Many aspects of the evolutionary history of the human mind remain puzzling to this day. While Darwinian natural selection has influenced the evolution of life.
