Description
The well-known author Matt Ridley offers a new perspective on the evolutionary psychology of sexual selection in this book. Since its first edition in 1993, it has significantly contributed to changing the understanding of many aspects of evolutionary theory and has become a classic text. The Red Queen is an engagingly written encyclopedia of the latest scientific views on human nature. It is named after the Red Queen from Carroll's Alice, who stays in place no matter how fast she runs – a similar effect in evolution is explained by the Red Queen Theory, which posits that the races of organisms lead to a stable equilibrium. This book, which became a classic shortly after its publication, belongs in the library of every thoughtful person.
