Philosophical Foundations of Evolutionary Psychology describes the
unique relationship between early schools of thought in Greek
philosophy, modern psychology, and most recently evolutionary
psychology. This volume provides the reader with a concise history
and description of some of the most important theories used in
understanding human behaviors (i.e., the mind-body duality, the
essence of human nature, and how humans have evolved to cooperate
with each other) and how the physical characteristics of
communities have contributed to positive (i.e., prosocial) or
destructive (i.e., antisocial) behavior. It explores human nature
from the philosophical perspectives of Socrates, Plato, Descartes,
Locke, and Rousseau as contributing factors to the development of
modern psychology (i.e., Structuralism, Functionalism, Behaviorism,
and Biopsychology) that ultimately is combined with evolutionary
psychology. Philosophical Foundations of Evolutionary Psychology
also incorporates various topics of psychology that support the
development of evolutionary psychology such as language and
communication, gender differences, aggression, cooperative
behaviors, and natural selection.
