Sex, Murder, and the Meaning of Life: A Psychologist Investigates How Evolution, Cognition, and Complexity Are Revolutionizing Our View of Human Nature Audiobook

" CogSci nerdiness "

" This book presents some interesting ideas but I would like to see more development of the ideas and cross references to other studies. "

" Not bad, just not that great. "

" self congratulatory book with questionable science based on serious bias and extremely outdated notions of evolution and what is 'natural". entertaining? yes. annoying? yes! some of the studies were good but not worth the rest. this book is GREAT if you want stuff to argue against:) "

" Interesting read with short chapters, making it easy to digest, but also makes you want more. Intriguing and convincing topics. However, it only focuses on the authors research. Much more depth could be provided, but a good overview of several theories. "

" I agree with a lot of the other reviews on here- the subject matter was interesting but the disorganization and scattered presentation distracted from his ideas. "

" Do I agree with most of what Kenrick is writing? Yes. Was it interesting? Not really. With a topic like this, it should have been. Good content but boring. "

" Unusually good: combines observational psychology and some economics to discuss why we behave how we do, and how our seemingly irrational behavior generally indicates underlying rational models of the world that aren't working the way we expect. "

" changed the way I think about everything "

" This book is a quick read. The last five chapters of the book are very interesting! "

" Human nature in different and interesting situations. "
