PDF-(EBOOK)-The Social Conquest of Earth

Sparking vigorous debate in the sciences The Social Conquest of Earth upends the famous theory that evolution naturally encourages creatures to put family first Discover Refashioning the story of human evolution Wilson draws on his remarkable knowledge of biology and social behavior to demonstrate that group selection not kin selection is the premier driving force of human evolution In a work that James D Watson calls a monumental exploration of the biological origins of the human condition Wilson explains how our innate drive to belong to a group is both a great blessing and a terrible curse Smithsonian Demonstrating that the sources of morality religion and the creative arts are fundamentally biological in nature the renowned Harvard University biologist presents us with the clearest explanation ever produced as to the origin of the human condition and why it resulted in our domination of the Earths biosphere.

S Study of The Eye of the Earth Charles Bodunde Niyi Osundare, emerging as the most prominent poet of a new generation in Nigeria, has made an overwhelming contribution in a relatively short time. S This book, in honor of David Messick, is about social decisions and the role cooperation plays in social life. Noted contributors who worked with Dave over the years will discuss their work in social judgment, decision making and ethics which was so important to Dave.The book offers a unique and valuable contribution to the fields of social psychology and organizational behavior. Ethical decision making, a central focus of this volume, is highly relevant to current scholarship and research in both disciplines. The volume will be suitable for graduate level courses in organizational behavior, social psychology, business ethics, and sociology. Malintzin was the indigenous woman who translated for Hernando Cortés in his dealings with the Aztec emperor Moctezuma in the days of 1519 to 1521. Malintzin, at least, was what the Indians called her. The Spanish called her doña Marina, and she has become known to posterity as La Malinche. As Malinche, she has long been regarded as a traitor to her people, a dangerously sexy, scheming woman who gave Cortés whatever he wanted out of her own self-interest.The life of the real woman, however, was much more complicated. She was sold into slavery as a child, and eventually given away to the Spanish as a concubine and cook. If she managed to make something more out of her life--and she did--it is difficult to say at what point she did wrong. In getting to know the trials and intricacies with which Malintzin\'s life was laced, we gain new respect for her steely courage, as well as for the bravery and quick thinking demonstrated by many other Native Americans in the earliest period of contact with Europeans.In this study of Malintzin\'s life, Camilla Townsend rejects all the previous myths and tries to restore dignity to the profoundly human men and women who lived and died in those days. Drawing on Spanish and Aztec language sources, she breathes new life into an old tale, and offers insights into the major issues of conquest and colonization, including technology and violence, resistance and accommodation, gender and power.
