3 of 4 people found the following review helpful By Dennis P. on December 2, 2000
Format: Hardcover
This book explains cultural selection theory in a very straightforward and concise way that bridges the gap between biology and sociology. It starts with an interesting historical chapter which traces primitive versions of cultural selection theory all the way back to Darwin. Next comes a very comprehensive overview of selection mechanisms and an explanation of the new so-called r/k theory. The rest of the book is filled with an impressive tour through the possible applications of the author's theory to political history, religion, art, mass media, sexual behavior, sport, and many other areas of cultural history. The author obviously has insight in many different sciences. I would have liked a more convincing proof of the new cultural r/k theory. Otherwise the book is quite well-documented.
