Editorial Reviews

Review

'Hinde combines simplicity of exposition with the rigour of discursive analysis on questions of current importance in the field of ethics ... the reading of this book will be as seductive as it is illuminating.'

Hinde combines simplicity of exposition with the rigour of discursive analysis on questions of current importance in the field of ethics ... the reading of this book will be as seductive as it is illuminating.


Product Description

Where do our moral beliefs come from? Theologians and scientists provide often conflicting answers. Robert Hinde resolves these conflicts in offering a groundbreaking, multidisciplinary response, drawing on psychology, philosophy, evolutionary biology and social anthropology. Hinde argues that understanding the origins of our morality can clarify the debates surrounding contemporary ethical dilemmas such as genetic modification, increasing consumerism and globalization.
