"Darwin and Evolutionary Psychology" (1973) is a paper by Michael Ghiselin.
Epigraph:
- "Psychology will be based on a new foundation, that of the necessary acquirement of each mental power and capacity by gradation." --Darwin
Excerpt:
- "A world populated by organism striving at no end but rather playing ridiculous sexual games, a world in which the brain is an extension of the gonads, and where killing a brother is a virtue, so long as it furthers one's mother reproductive success, simply cannot be reconciled with the old way of thinking." .
