Why do we do the things we do?Over a decade in the making, this game-changing book is Robert Sapolsky's genre-shattering attempt to answer that question as fully as perhaps only he could, looking at it from every angle. Sapolsky's storytelling concept is delightful but it also has a powerful intrinsic logic: he starts by looking at the factors that bear on a person's reaction in the precise moment a behavior occurs, and then hops back in time from there, in stages, ultimately ending up at the deep history of our species and its genetic inheritance.And so the first category of explanation is the neurobiological one. What goes on in a person's brain a second before the behavior happens? Then he pulls out to a slightly larger field of vision, a little earlier in time: What sight, sound, or smell triggers the nervous system to produce that behavior? And then, what hormones act hours to days earlier to change how responsive that individual is to the stimuli which trigger the nervous system? By now, he has increased our field of vision so that we are thinking about neurobiology and the sensory world of our environment and endocrinology in trying to explain what happened.Sapolsky keeps going--next to what features of the environment affected that person's brain, and then back to the childhood of the individual, and then to their genetic makeup. Finally, he expands the view to encompass factors larger than that one individual. How culture has shaped that individual's group, what ecological factors helped shape that culture, and on and on, back to evolutionary factors thousands and even millions of years old.The result is one of the most dazzling tours de horizon of the science of human behavior ever attempted, a majestic synthesis that harvests cutting-edge research across a range of disciplines to provide a subtle and nuanced perspective on why we ultimately do the things we do...for good and for ill. Sapolsky builds on this understanding to wrestle with some of our deepest and thorniest questions relating to tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, morality and free will, and war and peace. Wise, humane, often very funny, Behave is a towering achievement, powerfully humanizing, and downright heroic in its own right.

Well, i am not only disappointed but frightened. This book is a large review of papers and facts of all sorts from all species of animals, birds, hyenas, apes, fish, all put together in one massive frankenstein text. It is simply not practical to check every reference in the book to see how well each study was done and whether the results were interpreted correctly or just made to fit the strategy of writing. But things written this way are like scientific reviews - readers assume the author is right given that he did so much research. The fact that it may be very far from the truth struck me when i came across the passage about Stalin and Pavlik Morozov example. Not only it is historically grossly wrong, it was also interpreted in the best tradition of propaganda-infused ideology masked as neurophysiology. And of course presented as fact. Boom. What about trusting the author's interpretation of all other facts in this book?Two stars instead of one for indeed a good description of basic neuroanatomy and endocrinology.
