are far from genetically ? xing what behavioral preferences they
may possess. Instead, learning mechanisms offer a ? exible way of
attaining locally important cultural knowledge within temporal
windows of opportunity as has been convi- ingly shown by research
in language and culture attainment. Similar mechanisms are likely
to exist for other social capacities, such as mate preferences, for
example. It is this role of our biological inheritance that social
science must appreciate in order to furnish a more complete
understanding of human behavior. Within the natural range of
variation of capacities and armed with biologically conditioned
learning mechanisms we live out lives of meaning - in which we hold
some things to be real, rational, valuable or morally right, and
others not. It is this world of meaning in which we ? nd love and
hate, struggles for justice, power, and money, and the dramas that
lend to life both its depth and passion.
