Omslag till Derek Bickerton: More than Nature Needs (ePUB)

How did humans acquire cognition more powerful than a hunting-gathering primate needed to survive? Combining state-of-the-art research with forty years of writing about language evolution, Derek Bickerton resolves a crucial problem that both biology and cognitive science have ignored: how animal thinking escaped the prison of the here and now.
