520 $a"Can virtuous behavior be explained by nature, and not by human rational choice? In Primates and philosophers, renowned primatologist Frans de Waal explores the biological foundations of one of humanity's most cherished traits: morality. Drawing on Darwin, recent scientific advances, and his extensive research of primate behavior, de Waal argues that modern-day evolutionary biology incorrectly reinforces our habit of labeling ethical behavior as humane and the less civilized as animalistic. His compelling account of how human morality evolved out of mammalian society will fascinate anyone who has ever wondered about the origins and reach of human goodness."--Page 4 of cover.
