Robert Boyd is surely right that we are a different kind of animal.' We possess language, we have sophisticated trade and cooperation, but we are also frighteningly deceptive and prone to spasms of unspeakable violence. Boyd shows here in compelling style how our possession of culture - the passing on of learned information - explains the highs, lows, and contradictions in our behaviors.--Mark Pagel, author of Wired for Culture: Origins of the Human Social Mind
