Everyone is Animal: The Truth About Human Nature
About this audiobook
Discover the uncomfortable truth about who we really are.
We like to think we're rational, civilized beings who've transcended our animal origins. We're wrong.
Everyone is Animal strips away comforting myths to reveal the biological drives shaping every aspect of human behavior. From office politics to online dating, from tribal warfare to status anxiety, our actions are governed by evolutionary programming we barely understand.
Drawing on evolutionary psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral research, this unflinching examination explores five fundamental aspects of human nature: territorial competition, insatiable desire, tribal loyalty, dominance hierarchies, and sexual strategy.
You'll recognize yourself in these pages. You'll understand why humans consistently behave in ways that contradict their stated values. And you'll learn why acknowledging our animal nature is the first step toward conscious choice.
The question isn't whether we're animals. The question is what we do about it.
