Melding evolutionary theory and both animal and human ethology
together with close, descriptive historical research on a typical
Tuscan village in the seventeenth century, Hanlon explains the good
reasons individuals had for behaving in ways that now seem strange
to us. This fascinating study springs from the conviction that the
building blocks of human life are universal: hierarchy and
political participation; co-operation and competition,
reproduction, invention, and adaptation. The author argues,
however, that individual emotions, thought processes, and social
predicaments are always set in specific times and places.
