The book explores the evolution of human cognition and knowledge prior to the advent of formal science. It details how early social and labor activities, tool-making, and animal domestication spurred the development of cognitive skills. As societies advanced and labor became more specialized, the complexity of knowledge expanded beyond individual memory, leading to a gradual accumulation of scientific understanding across various domains. This historical perspective highlights the interconnectedness of human development and the emergence of scientific inquiry.
