Book List - my must read list
Random blog/post I know but I love to read, and have made a list of books that are on my "To Read" / " Must Read" list
Anyone have any other suggestions that i should add to the list?
Currently Reading:
The Moral Animal: Why We Are, the Way We Are: The New Science of Evolutionary Psychology By Robert Wright
"The new Darwinian social scientists are fighting a doctrine that has dominated their fields for much of this century: the idea that biology doesn't much matter -- that the uniquely malleable human mind, together with the unique force of
culture, has severed our behavior from its evolutionary roots; that there is no
inherent human nature driving human events, but that, rather, our essential
nature is to be driven"
