Published: 5/2/2017

Why read?

Behave is a comprehensive exploration of human behavior and the underlying biological, psychological, and social factors that shape our actions. Sapolsky draws on insights from neuroscience, genetics, and evolutionary biology to explain why we behave the way we do, from altruism and empathy to aggression and violence. By examining the complex interplay of genes, hormones, and environmental influences, Sapolsky offers readers a deeper understanding of human nature and the forces that drive our behavior.
