This handbook integrates a wide range of perspectives on the relationship between evolution and the human condition. In addition to evolutionary psychology and behavioral ecology, the inclusion of neuroscience, feminist discourse, sociocultural anthropology, and media studies makes the handbook the most comprehensive reference in the field to date.
