A Wall Street Journal Favorite Read of the Year A Guardian Top
Science Book of the Year Tool-making or culture, language or
religious belief: ever since Darwin, thinkers have struggled to
identify what fundamentally differentiates human beings from other
animals. In this much-anticipated book, Michael Tomasello weaves
his twenty years of comparative studies of humans and great apes
into a compelling argument that cooperative social interaction is
the key to our cognitive uniqueness. Once our ancestors learned to
put their heads together with others to pursue shared goals,
humankind was on an evolutionary path all its own. "Michael
Tomasello is one of the few psychologists to have conducted
intensive research on both human children and chimpanzees, and A
Natural History of Human Thinking reflects not only the insights
enabled by such cross-species comparisons but also the wisdom of a
researcher who appreciates the need for asking questions whose
answers generate biological insight. His book helps us to
understand the differences, as well as the similarities, between
human brains and other brains." -David P. Barash, Wall Street
