A brilliant inquiry into the origins of human nature from the author of The Better Angels of Our Nature and Enlightenment Now. "Sweeping, erudite, sharply argued, and fun to read..also highly persuasive." --TimeNow updated with a new afterword
One of the world's leading experts on language and the mind explores the idea of human nature and its moral, emotional, and political colorings. With characteristic wit, lucidity, and insight, Pinker argues that the dogma that the mind has no innate traits-a doctrine held by many intellectuals during the past century-denies our common humanity and our individual preferences, replaces objective analyses of social problems with feel-good slogans, and distorts our understanding of politics, violence, parenting, and the arts. Injecting calm and rationality into debates that are notorious for ax-grinding and mud-slinging, Pinker shows the importance of an honest acknowledgment of human nature based on science and common sense.

The color and the design are just awesome.
PAID $7.51 After taxes. I was so happy when I received this with the color and the roomy slots for the remote controls that I ordered a second one. I really love the color and design on the remote control holder it is really beautiful. I just couldn't turn down buying a second one that can be used in my bedroom at such a cheap price. I doubt that this price will stay the same for long. I bought this in March 2024.
