Aus evolutionsgeschichtlicher Sicht werden die Verbindungen zwischen den einzelnen Stufen biologischer Komplexität zurückverfolgt - von den Genen über das Nervensystem bis hin zu Tiergesellschaften und menschlichen Kulturen. Analysiert wird die Geschichte der Evolutionstheorie von Darwin bis zur Gegenwart, wobei ein besonderer Schwerpunkt auf der Molekularbiologie und der evolutionären Sozialtheorie liegt. Enthalten sind auch neue Arbeiten zu Primatengesellschaften und der Entwicklungsgeschichte des Menschen. Geschrieben von zwei hervorragenden Dozenten auf dem Gebiet der menschlichen Ethologie.
